Comment:

 We had several instances of this bug with 698.

 overview:
 Couldnt connect to any mesh
 iwlist displayed "Failed to read scan data : Resource temporarily
 unavailable"
 rmmod usb8xxx displayed "libertas: SCAN_CMD failed"

 It happened in 3 XOs:

 1)worked fine; clicked register to connect to jabber;when i rebooted it
 had the bug

 2)worked fine(connection to net was confirned); left alone overnight; bug
 was seen next morning

 3)rebooted; it had the bug right from the start

 I have also seen somth similar(the same iwlist output) some weeks ago as
 well.
