rt61pci freezes system while trying to connect

[karamalz]

I have a lot of trouble with my ralink pci wlan card.

NetworkManager scanns flawlessly, and asks me for the key (WEP) when trying to connect, but then completely freezes my system, only a hard reboot is possible.

I found out that switching from mixed mode to 802.11b solves the problem for me.

My system is completely up to date, so i think we should work on this issue before gutsy is released.

This seems to be the same problem I have in #129183

Can you try with the package found in my ppa (http://ppa.launchpad.net/cschieli/ubuntu)

I confirm this bug, but it happens only sometimes.
