I just tried following the directions #15 to (hopefully) see a trace on from the console. No such luck - I get no output - just the hang.

What I did:
1. Blacklisted rt3090sta (the workaround module) and removed blacklist from rt2800pci
2. Disabled wireless in network-manager and removed the workaround 3090 module
3. modprobe rt2800pci
4. Re-enable wireless in network-manager and connect to network
5. Went to pseudo-terminal 1
6. Alt+SysRq+S (for sync - and to verify that my terminal keys were mapped properly)
7. sudo rmmod rt2800pci

Nothing was emitted, no prompt comes back, no response to Atl+SysRq key combinations. The last entry in /var/log/kern.log was my SysRq sync completion. Is there anywhere else I should look for info?

I haven't tried the kernel-ppa yet. I'll do that when I get the chance.
