Yes. It is actually simpler to download the 2 packages from
wicd.sourceforge.net, and make && make install. That avoids the sort
of conflicts you got.
Please post 'ifconfig wlan0'. Use system-config-network to configure
the wireless interface. If you get wicd installed, then do a
'chkconfig wicd on' and 'service wicd start', then use the desktop
icon for wicd-client, and configure the wireless card there too.
It usually helps to start by turning OFF all wireless security on the
router and on the laptop, while you get the rest of it working, then
add MAC filtering and WPA keys etc. last.
Sounds like you are actually quite close. Once wired is working, the
universe of points of screwup gets a lot smaller!
