dude, this can happen for a specific case, when your asks xbmc to quit, xbmc tries to stop running child threads and fails. then xbmc stops / crashes with exit code not 0, so system thinks it was "just" crashed and restarts it - what was requested feature.

most of the time python add ons are "hanging". it was reported to xbmc devels as a bug many times two years ago with huge flame war and no solution.

hm, is this story with two different sticks pointing to a bug in driver / firmware rather then in scripting around them?

xbian config is writing the password to /etc/network/interfaces (please check content of the file), so it handles the sticks not directly. then wpa-supplicant process is picking this info, using it to create connection to ap.

so if "interfaces" file is ok for both, then the bad thing must happen at level we can't solve.

check the file, then we will discuss next steps.
