Hello,
After upgrade from ubuntu karmic this error message shows up in /var/log/syslog.
Feb 26 00:17:28 majo-desktop kernel: [   19.944477] phy0 -> rt2500usb_init_eeprom: Error - Invalid RT chipset detected.
Feb 26 00:17:28 majo-desktop kernel: [   19.944961] usbcore: registered new interface driver rt2500usb
But I can connect properly to internet. Nm-applet shows, that driver for my wifi adapter is rt73usb, but output of lsusb shows that my driver is RT2501USB. The name of this  wifi adapter is Edimax EW-7318USg.
