This is the same bug I found in the 386 testing version.  There is a
bug report on this.  The linux-wlan-ng version(..-7) in the unstable
distribution has been fixed, but you'll have to download the source
and compile it with module-assistant.

Once I did that, it has been working with my DWL-122, although I have
to fiddle with it a bit at boot time.

Good luck,
Dave
