Comment:

 The above patch does the following:
 - when there is no mesh hardware we add three icons (channel 1,6,11) to
 the mesh view
 - after sugar is started up and after an timeout (30 secs) we see no
 "known" network we do autoconnect to an Ad-hoc network
 - first we try if there is an Ad-hoc network that is used by other
 learners in the area, if not we default to channel 1
 - the adhoc icons only have the stroke color by default, the fill color
 indicates that there are other learners using the adhoc network (the icon
 does change accordingly)
