Oops, I forget the second test (thanks to Luca for the private
reminder):

If I don't start wicd at boot time the results are:
* lsmod shows ar6000 loaded.
* No kernel oops so far.
* I can start wicd and wicd-client.py later, without getting an oops;
  but (as before) I have no eth0 device?!

If there's anything else I should test or any information I can
provide I'm happy to do so!

Cheers,
gregor
