It is very probable that my hypothesis ("*maybe* the hardware is defective") is wrong. Do you have another hypothesis? Or do you disagree that the problem "*apparently* is with the Wifi"? That is easy to test:

Disconnect the Wifi (with the related Fn key on the keyboard or physically, e.g., if it is a USB adapter, maybe deactivating Wifi from NetworkManager is enough); Save some space on the root partition (see https://trisquel.info/forum/trisquel-not-detecting-thinkpenguin-wifi-adapter-after-install#comment-118193 that I have just written); See if the message keeps on being logged in kern.log, looking at the live output of 'tail -F /var/log/kern.log' or with 'less /var/log/kern.log' after working a little (using Ethernet if the network is needed) or searching for pieces of it with 'grep'.
