Comment 188 for bug 210725

Hi everybody,

I post this comment because I have a new bug with the new kernel (2.6.30-2generic (x86_64)) on Ubuntu Karmic.
So the kernel doesn't recognise my wireless card. And if I try "rt2860-source_1.8.0.0-0ubuntu1~ppa2_all.deb" (by Stéphane Graber) I have an error output :

============================
Adding Module to DKMS build system
Doing initial module build

Error! Bad return status for module build on kernel: 2.6.30-2generic (x86_64)
Consult the make.log in the build directory
/var/lib/dkms/rt2860/1.8.0.0/build/ for more information.
Installing initial module

Error! Could not locate rt2860sta.ko for module rt2860 in the DKMS tree.
You must run a dkms build for kernel 2.6.30-2-generic (x86_64) first.
Done.
============================

(you can found "make.log" in attachment)

I suppose that the reason is that actual Ralink drivers (1.8.0.0) doesn't support this new kernel. But I'm not a specialist ;-).
I see that there are new drivers : http://www.ralinktech.com/ralink/Home/Support/Linux.html (2.1.1.0) but not new firmware. These new drivers are maybe a solution for eeepc's wireless card ? You can found the changelog here : http://www.ralinktech.com.tw/data/drivers/ReleaseNote-RT2860.txt

Do you want I try to compile this new drivers?

Thanks for your help !
