I don't see what more I can say but here goes:
* This machine is a clean install of lucid, I did not dist-upgrade from karmic.
* Before upgrading, to keep the network up some of the time I had a cron job
that did
'ifdown wlan1 && sleep 10 && ifup wlan1'
every 4 minutes (the disassociation occured every 5 minutes).
I disabled this cron job.
* I did an aptitude full-upgrade on 2010-05-10 (or 09, not sure), which pulled
in the packages noted in #12.
* I rebooted, with the USB device attached.
* The system is normally left running with nobody logged in to a gnome
session. I did not try logging in to gnome and looking for instability.
* I don't have wicd or network-manager installed.
I have an entry for the device in /etc/network/interfaces, so it should be
getting configured by 'ifupdown' (see #10).
* As far as I can tell from 'dbus-monitor --system' dbus is not controlling
the device,
although there is a control file for network interfaces in /etc/dbus-1/.
This might change if I start a gnome session
but I haven't tried this.
Questions for tarung1793:
* Do you have the linux-backports-modules-wireless-lucid-generic package
installed.
I suspect that is where the fix was applied.
* When you say 'not always working' what exactly do you mean - for example:
- "it works every other boot", or
- "it works one boot in 10", or
- "it randomly fails and resumes even without rebooting."
* I think it would help to post some dmesg or syslog excerpts of boots where
the device is working and where the device failing (while you are running
2.6.32-22), to help the maintainers understand what is happening differently in
the "works" and "not working" cases.
* What is controlling the network device - wicd, nm, ifupdown?
* Is your machine running a fresh install of lucid or did you dist-upgrade? It
could be there is some cruft left behind by the upgrade.
