Comment 10 for bug 129719

Using the rt2x00 driver on my PCMCIA nic causes big troubles: network manager somehow breaks suspend and even refuses to shutdown:
 Sep 2 23:16:19 hamerkeuh kernel: [ 974.460000] unregister_netdevice: waiting for wlan0 to become free. Usage count = 1

This message repeats over and over again, rmmod does not work, all operations that require network block (sudo won't work, lucky I have a root account), the only remedy is the power button.

Without networkmanager I can use the driver (with wicd or manually with wpa_supplicant), but with said performance loss.

The legacy driver still works fine for me, suspend/resume works, and throughput is good.

Please re-enable the legacy driver for rt2500 in gutsy!! The new rt2x00 driver, although promising, is *not* ready.
