[SOLVED] rt2870 causes kernel panic when put into monitor mode

My d-link DWA-160 usb wireless with a ralink rt2870 chipset works just fine with regular wireless networking. But a couple seconds after I say

# airmon-ng start wlan0 

to put the interface into monitor mode, there is a kernel panic.
Modules loaded for the card are rt2800usb and rt2870sta and their dependencies.
