Bug Description

If I switch on the wireless before boot the card (rt73usb, using ralink chips) works. However if I turn it on once the system is up, or if I turn it off then on (using physical switch) it will not work. The dmesg show that the card is loaded as /dev/..../input11 ??? is that the cause. Perhaps I need to write a hal policy file to force it as wireless card, but I don't know how.
I will attach, lspci, lsusb, dmesg and ifconfig. If you need more info please tell me.

Sorry I mistook, it seems even in working state the wireless device is created in /dev/.../input
Also if it is on before boot I can turn it off and on again, it is working.
The problem may come from conman but I don't know how to debug...
Anyway I attach a maximum of info.

I found a workaround. I set up my bios in order to turn on the wifi card on at boot.

Thanks
