Package: linux-image-2.6.30-1-amd64 Version: 2.6.30-1 Severity: normal Hi,
rt2870sta module has stopped working correctly after updating kernel from 2.6.29 (version 2.6.29-5, which works without issues) to 2.6.30 (version 2.6.30-1). Of course, it is not able to find networks with iwlist, nor connect with iwconfig and certain functions (like ifconfig ra0 down) freezes the system completely (although it accepts alt+sysrq+reisub). I found this post on ArchLinux forums describing the situation and a possible solution http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=73964 In my case, the affected device is a SMCWUSBS-N2. --------------- # lsusb -v Bus 001 Device 003: ID 083a:b522 Accton Technology Corp.
