Is A Bmi Of 18 Good For A Model?

Kernel log spammed with errors rt2500

My wifi card kept spamming kernel log with messages like this: "phy0 -> rt2500pci_set_device_state: Error - Device failed to enter state 1 (-16)". The solution is easily found among launchpad bug reports. Power management needs to be turned off for the card. It's easy to do:

iwconfig wlan0 power off

To make it permanent edit /etc/rc.local adding this line before exit 0. Reboot and you're done! Confirm that with calling iwconfig:
• lo no wireless extensions.

eth0 no wireless extensions.
