Give the list some logs to look at...
Here is the output of /var/log/messages after plugging in the wireless
adapter:
Feb 3 18:57:47 localhost NetworkManager: <info> Found radio killswitch
rfkill0 (at
/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.7/usb1/1-4/1-4:1.0/ieee80211/phy0/rfkill0)
(driver <unknown>)
Feb 3 18:57:47 localhost NetworkManager: <info> (wlan0): driver
supports SSID scans (scan_capa 0x01).
Feb 3 18:57:47 localhost NetworkManager: <info> Wireless now disabled
by radio killswitch
Feb 3 18:57:47 localhost NetworkManager: <info> (wlan0): new 802.11
WiFi device (driver: 'rt73usb')
Feb 3 18:57:47 localhost NetworkManager: <info> (wlan0): exported as
/org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/Devices/2
Feb 3 18:57:47 localhost NetworkManager: <info> (wlan0): now managed
Feb 3 18:57:47 localhost NetworkManager: <info> (wlan0): device state
change: 1 -> 2 (reason 2)
Feb 3 18:57:47 localhost NetworkManager: <info> (wlan0): bringing up
device.
Feb 3 18:57:47 localhost NetworkManager: <info> (wlan0): deactivating
device (reason: 2).
What does "reason: 2" mean? Does it mean that there is no driver?
