Unfortunately Launchpad doesn't like my report, timeout :( Here is the description of the bug and dmesg log attached

Several issues installing kernel from proposed emerged. My wifi is using rt73usb. It's a D-Link DWA-111 (I'll provide the exact chipset later)

 * on system startup, the card is unable to connect to router, filling the textual console with following error message "phy0 -> rt2x00usb_vendor_request: Error - Vendor Request 0x07 failed for offset 0x30c4 with error -108."

 * unplugging the USB card, the related kernel module is not unloaded

 * re-plugging the USB card, it seems unable to "turn on": the activity led is off and the plugging is not reported in logs

 * removing and uploading the kernel module, the following messages are showed by dmesg
