[Bug 539794] [NEW] rt2500pci wireless regression in lucid

[DavidM]

Public bug reported:

using the latest lucid kernel (.16) and latest updates (16/03/10)

Cannot connect wirelessly - pcmcia card requires the rt2500pci driver.
This has worked fine in hardy/jaunty and karmic.  Lucid has broken
wireless connectivity.

Network manager does not display any wireless networks.  After about 5
minutes, the main home wireless network is sometimes displayed.  However
no other wireless networks is displayed.

In previous ubuntu versions, on boot, all wireless networks were always
displayed, and the strongest network (my home network) was automatically
connected.

I can only connect now via the laptop inbuilt RJ45 port.

Looking in the syslog I noticed the following errors being displayed:

Mar 16 19:03:01 ubuntu-laptop kernel: [ 2366.400052] phy0 -> rt2500pci_set_device_state: Error - Device failed to enter state 3 (-16).
