Which driver works?  If you're not sure which is actually being used,
try running:

    readlink /sys/class/net/$DEV_NAME/device/driver

where $DEV_NAME is the name ifconfig shows.

So far as I'm aware:
- the original Ralink driver uses the prefix "rausb" (by default)
- the Debian package has long used "eth"
- the new drivers included in Linux 2.6.24 and later use "wlan"

However, udev should remember the name assigned to each card and restore
it consistently.  So I don't understand why the name would change now.
