Public bug reported:
The WLI-UC-GN adapter is not functional in Ubuntu 9.10 beta with Linux
2.6.31.11.22. USB details:
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 0411:015d MelCo., Inc.
With either the live cd or installing, a wireless network does not
appear in NetworkManager. It is not clear the support status of this
adapter or what driver should be used. Google suggests anything from
Ralink 2800 to 3070 drivers. The provided modules do not detect an
interface. Building the 2009_0820_RT2870_Linux_STA_V2.2.0.0 drivers
fails due to API changes in the Linux kernel. Patching the changes for
the new API creates a driver that can be loaded, appears in ifconfig and
iwconfig but does not appear in NetworkManager. Running wpa_supplicant
makes a "wireless network" heading appear in NetworkManager but other
than that is non-functional for scanning networks or joining a network.

Trying to use ndisgtk on the bundled Windows driver CD fails due to not
detecting the adapter. However the CD lists what would appear a
different product "UCGN" and that gives an error about unable to
determine whether an adapter can be detected. Using the ndiswrapper
command line shows that the adapter can be detected. Running the
ndiswrapper shows a runtime link error due to an undefined function:
