Bug Description

As of Kernel 2.6.22-14 I can no longer us my RT61 based chipset PCI WiFi card that was working fine in Ver. 7.04 and not in a fully updated 7.10 install.

Looking into dmesg gives some signs that kernel APIs may of been broken and I can no longer build the driver from RaLinks website over at:
http://www.ralinktech.com/ralink/Home/Support/Linux.html
README has more details on building..
Under the name "RT2501PCI/mPCI/CB(RT61:RT2561/RT2561S/RT2661)"

I would also like to point out that WiFi is becoming a concerning matter to myself and many other GNU/Linux users.
This is not a complaint but more a point that I am sure you are already aware of.

Thanks for your time,
Adam
