debugging and fixing wireless rt61pci driver



 I ran into this bug, and I want to fix it myself... 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.22/+bug/139832

What I am confused about is that there seems to have been a large 
change between Feisty (2.6.20) and Gutsy (2.6.22).  I pulled down the 
2.6.20 kernel source from packages.ubuntu.com and was about to diff it 
against the latest 2.6.22 package.  However, I notice that 2.6.20 has 
the file rt61pci.c, and that the latest kernel source does not! 
However, the rt61pci module does load an function on 2.6.22 for some 
time before becoming unstable and causing the network connection to 
die.  My question is, mainly for Jarod, where can I go from here to 
try resolving the bug?  Can you give any tips on standard procedures 
in this instance?  Thanks!
