I don’t think you can of= just the “empty” parts of your partition.
Attached is a Python script I use to “zero” out the free space of a mounted partition.
It is jdk 1.6 from SUN java -version java version “1.6.0_20″ Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_20-b02) Java HotSpot(TM) Server VM (build 16.3-b01, mixed mode)

Then either upgrade your router’s firmware to Tomato or DD-WRT (if they support your router) or bite the bullet and buy a new one.
You can get really good ones mail order for US$55-60.

Stopping network-manager got me an instant association with dhclient. I didn’t need to change /etc/network/interfaces.
It does. (Actually iwlist eth2 scan). Now to figure out why WPA doesn’t always work.
I will also try reinstalling wicd instead of network-manager.
Thanks!!

True. But Hawaii is a _state_. And I used to _live_ there. So the omission really stood out to me.

That’s true. But then, I also didn’t mention the Virgin Islands or, further away, Trinidad and Tobago. IOW, you’ve got to set practical limits somewhere.

I don’t know where I put the physical manual, but I did download the PDF version from HP’s website. It has more pictures than explanatory text, and of course it blithely assumes we’ll use Windows, but it says:
Wireless button
Turns the wireless feature on or off, but does not create a wireless connection.
NOTE: A wireless network must be set up in order to establish a wireless connection.
…
Wireless light
Blue: An integrated wireless device, such as a wireless local area network (WLAN) device and/or a Bluetooth® device, is turned on.
Amber: All wireless devices are turned off.
That’s it. They don’t say anything else about it, and what they do say doesn’t seem to apply to Debian. Pushing the button doesn’t seem to have any effect, and the light seems to be blue most of the time, even when the connection wasn’t working, and amber sometimes even while I’m connected. Sometimes I need to RTFM, but I don’t think this is one.

Don’t you have some method of checking the integrity of you backups? (http://www.taobackup.com/integrity.html)
It is considered that a modern drive developing bad sectors visible to the system[1] is not to be trusted.
[1] drives are remapping bad sectors internally, until they run out of spare sectors.
This looks like filesystem corruption, did you fsck the drive/partition?
