After reading through related bugs, it looks like avahi / nss is trying
multicast dns before traditional dns. With multicast DNS, the only real
option is long timeouts and retries, since only one avahi-enabled
machine on the network may have a response for a given request. (That

After some stracing and tcpdumping, it looks like the changed behavior
here is that when mdns gets an NXDomain response, it retries up to 5

This seems to be a bug in the rt2570 module. Since you can also use
ndiswrapper to drive these cards (at least those of us on intel boxes),
there is a simple workaround: disable the rt2570 module. You can compile
it out, or just add these two lines to your /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist:
# use ndiswrap
Oh, more information, for those more interested in getting their card
working than in fixing kernel bugs:
I was able to get my card up by properly configuring
/etc/network/interfaces manually, in the standard Ubuntu kernels, with
DHCP. I can get exactly one "ifup" command through per reboot. You c
