Hello people,
	I have a Dell XPS m1210 and because it has intel wireless 3945ABG, which doesn't work for me using the wpi driver, I decided to buy a Gigabyte GN-WBKG wireless usb adapter.It is recognized normally with ural driver.
	The last 3 weeks I had some weird problems using this usb adapter.While I was surfing or listening to radio (from internet) the laptop many times suddenly rebooted(a reboot like a hardware reset , which didn't give me the chance to catch the errors).Also I am not sure how can I reproduce the error in a way that I can understand what crashes.
	So I decided , to test the HPS usb stack .Now I don't have these "reboots" any more but sometimes after a lot of use it seems the device does not respond.Something has to do with the ural driver.At such a moment I get the interface down and detach and re-attach the stick but kernel does not see it anymore and I have to reboot the whole system.I paste to you some messages :

marinosi_at_lucifer:~$ sudo wpa_supplicant -i ural0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf 
Failed to initialize driver interface
 
 IIRC , after this incident the usb port is fully disabled.I want to note , that this happens without moving the usb adapter at all.

Thank you all and have a nice time.
