Hi Johannes,

This happend on reboot, yes. I rebooted without the adapter plugged
in, then I left udev load the modules upon plugging the USB adapter.
I'll send you the error message in a few hours when I am back home.
Note that when the system freezes (the original bug, with the modules
from kernel 2.6.37), I get no log messages whatsoever.

Thanks,
Eric
