Should I run ps on all CPUs next time? Or better on the cpu that is 
active at the beginning of the ddb session?

I'm using Bob's wifinwid script which does this:

while :; do
(ifconfig $1 | grep 'status: active' > /dev/null)
if [ $? -ne 0 ]; then
        [...]
        sleep 2
fi
done

Before I unplugged the urtwn I could use it normaly. I didn't noticed
any messages on the console but didn't check dmesg befor I unplugged urtwn.

Besides lynx in the foreground on the console the wifinwid script and
offlineimap (python) were active in the background.
