Oct 16 22:18:24 ubuntu kernel: [ 51.169930] usbcore: error -17 registering interface ^Idriver rtl8187
Oct 16 22:18:24 ubuntu kernel: [ 53.192528] udev: renamed network interface wlan0 to wlan1
Oct 16 22:18:24 ubuntu kernel: [ 53.605904] loop: module loaded
Oct 16 22:18:24 ubuntu kernel: [ 53.710573] lp: driver loaded but no devices found

One main problem is that udev renames wlan0 to wlan1 that is the core problem why i can't connect to wifi think. When i boot up with 2.6.24-19 it is wlan0. But i don't know.
