Hi All,
after upgrading ifplugd I have found impossible to connect on my wireless LAN even giving the command ifup eth1 in the console. I've tried previous version of the rt2500 driver and other things, just to be sure that the bug it's not related to other software/driver. I've tried to use iwconfig directly and it works (same options in the /etc/network/interface file). Then I've tried the testing package of ifplugd and it works and ifup eth1 works too. Removing the package also makes to work ifup eth1 command. Installing the unstable version of 
ifplugd reproduces the same problems.

This is my /etc/network/interface:
# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system # and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5). 

# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
address 127.0.0.1
netmask 255.0.0.0

# This is a list of hotpluggable network interfaces.
# They will be activated automatically by the hotplug subsystem. 

mapping hotplug
	script grep
	map eth0
	map eth1

iface eth0 inet dhcp


iface eth1 inet dhcp
	wireless-ap 00:14:A9:9C:F2:91
	wireless-key s:XXXXX open
