I woke up this morning to find out that my smarttop's drive was completely full and that the culprit was /var/log/kern.log (well, and /var/log/messages). It was swamped with messages from the rt2870sta module. For now, since I've got it connected via eth0, I've just rmmod'd and blacklisted it and cleared out the logs. However, I'd like to know if this looks like a hardware, firmware or software problem and whether it can be fixed (maybe with http://www.powerdeveloper.org/forums/vi ... f=7&t=2278 ?)

This is during startup:
Code:
Oct 12 10:54:43 sasquatch kernel: [ 6.120811] rt2870sta: module is from the staging directory, the quality is unknown, you have been warned.
Oct 12 10:54:43 sasquatch kernel: [ 6.201921] usbcore: registered new interface driver rt2870

And this is what's filling the logs:
Code:
Oct 12 10:54:52 sasquatch kernel: [ 29.014782] [<8013f57c>] (__aeabi_uidivmod+0x8/0x18) from [<7f0ff2c

After 1ms it repeats.

Any ideas?

You might try and see if compat-wireless could help. I have a thread on it at
http://www.powerdeveloper.org/forums/vi ... f=7&t=2278

the compat-wireless package should give you a much better wireless driver to work with.
