Okay, the issue is:

if you plug zd1201 into USB, it starts jamming radio,
immediately. Enable/disable, or iwlist wlan0 scan, or basically any
operation unjams the radio. This patch works it around:

diff --git a/drivers/net/wireless/zd1201.c b/drivers/net/wireless/zd1201.c
index 335eaf3..dcc7bc7 100644
--- a/drivers/net/wireless/zd1201.c

-       zd1201_disable(zd);
+       zd1201_enable(zd);      /* zd1201 likes to startup enabled, interfering 
*/
+       zd1201_disable(zd);     /* with all the wifis in range */
        return 0;
 
 err_net:


....question is "is that right solution, or is something different
needed to solve that problem properly"?
