Since "conky" is a userspace program it seems unlikely that the bug is here. It is most likely with the "orinoco_usb" driver that you are using. > I can't produce the error.

This means that you should report your bug at the web-site of the orinoco driver as I see that you have already done. In principle, you could "hack" conky to ignore your device but that would be rather pointless since some other userspace program may then trigger the bug in the driver you are using. Regards, Kapil. P.S. In case you *are* using the orinoco driver from the Debian kernel, please reassign the bug to the appropriate kernel package. -- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
