[Bug 34902] Re: Ralink Wireless legacy drivers (rt2500 rt61 rt73 rt2570) USB/PCMCIA/PCI hangs PC

[figjam]

Well quite a surprise for me today.

I got so fed up with it all, I decided to dump network manager and go
back to the 'old way' by just hacking the configs. (since the files were
already in /etc/networks) i did not touch them.

I uninstalled network-manager and network-manager-gnome and rebooted.

After a reboot, I noticed that the wireless driver had started to work
again. The first time since the issue a few weeks ago.

Out of curiousity, I checked out System -> Administration -> Network and
lo and behold, the network icon was back to wireless and activated. (no
idea why network manager is still here..)

I had an issue with the hard wired link (eth0) though. This is back to
the main issue I had when I first got the machine.

I reinstalled network-manager and network-manager-gnome and everything
works for me now. Even eth0 and wlan.

Glad (for me at least) that my problem is resolved.

Now to see whether the machine locks up after a while.
