Yes indeed, rt73 now works fine, thanks. But I have yet another driver
(em2880) still making me remain under 2.6.19. I am aware that Markus,
the driver mantainer, is working on making it compatible with 2.6.20, so
hopefully I'll be able to run 2.6.20 soon.

However, the main problem is that 2.6.19 has been pulled from the
repositories for some unknown (to me) reason. Since 2.6.17 won't boot
for me under Feisty (doesn't recognize the root partition, or something
of the sort), I'm left with the option of running the 2.6.19 kernel that
I had installed before it vanished from the repos, and manually
installing the official nvidia driver whenever I need to. Not to mention
reinstalling the driver whenever there is an update to nvidia-glx. I
hope the em2880 work is finished soon, but obviously it would be very
rude to nag the one doing all the hard work... So I'm sticking to 2.6.19
for the time being.
