only buy ZyDAS/Atheros(zd1211rw driver), Realtek(rtl8187 driver) or
Ralink(rt73usb driver) devices.

Try "vga=3D9" as kernel command line option. On i386 and amd64 you shou=

Which is nothing compared to the buffer provided with netconsole.. ;-)
I would assume this skb_under_panic is the crash you are seeing. Though,
for some reason, I managed to get two interfaces (wlan2 and
wlan1_rename) when I first tried to reproduce the problem be ejecting
the device and then re-inserting it, so this could be something else,
too, or USB on that laptop does not always behave nicely.. ;-)

Yes, but the otus driver is currently less stable then the ar9170 drive=

11n does work but currently only in the the otus driver, which is also
open but it just doesn't use mac80211. ar9170 is the driver which will
