Bug Description

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.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. This bug did not have a package associated with it, which is important for ensuring that it gets looked at by the proper developers. You can learn more about finding the right package at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/FindRightPackage. I have classified this bug as a bug in linux.

When reporting bugs in the future please use apport, either via the appropriate application's "Help -> Report a Problem" menu or using 'ubuntu-bug' and the name of the package affected. You can learn more about this functionality at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ReportingBugs.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Please execute the following command, as it will automatically gather debugging information, in a terminal:

apport-collect 528124

This will help us to find and resolve the problem. Bear in mind that you may need to install the python-launchpadlib package from the universe repository. Additionally, when prompted to give apport-collect permissions for Launchpad you will need to give it at least the ability to "Change Non-Private" data as it will be adding information to your bug report. Thanks in advance!

When reporting bugs in the future please use apport, either via the appropriate application's "Help -> Report a Problem" menu or using 'ubuntu-bug' and the name of the package affected. You can learn more about this functionality at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ReportingBugs.
