No wlan0 adapter listed WiFi GUI

Tue May 05, 2015 12:30 pm

Setup Information:
Pi B+ with WiFi adapter, wireless keyboard/mouse run from Pi Usb Hub - no apparent power issues
running Raspbian Wheezy from image dated 2014-02-16
sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get upgrade have both been run

Situation:
No wlan0 adapter listed when I attempted to setup WiFi using the WiFi GUI feature.
WiFi established using the command line - Wifi works, Internet access Ok.

file: /etc/network/interfaces is configured as follows:

auto lo

iface lo inet loopback
iface eth0 inet dhcp

allow-hotplug wlan0
iface wlan0 inet manual
wpa-roam /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
iface default inet dhcp

No problem with Wifi with the above configuration; however, WiFi GUI does not list wlan0 adapter.

I have spent hours trying to figure out why the WiFi GUI does not list the wlan0 adapter - what am I missing?
