Comment 11 for bug 147811

Hi all,

I'm having a very similar issue, and have solved it!
I'm posting here in case it helps with the diagnosis for these issues.

I have a brand new laptop, and the wireless card works right out of the box with the Gutsy Live CD.
However, once installed, it doesn't work.

I've studied the dmesg from both situations.

My particular card loads two modules into the Kernel, namely rt75usb and rt2500usb.
Live CD loads them in that order... and all is well.
Hard Drive install loads them in the reverse order... and wireless is badly broken.

A fix is to manually remove both and then re-install in the correct order
i.e. (as root)]
rmmod rt2500usb
rmmod rt73usb
modprobe rt73usb
modprobe rt2500usb

and all works perfectly - until the next re-boot :-(

Neil.
