I have compiled and installed the rt2500 driver as per the procedure I used
for 10.1. The module is installed.
I have configured the card in YAST selecting the correct module in the
Advanced settings.
I have added alias ra0 rt2500 to /etc/modprobe.conf/local.
I still cannot get it to connect.

Are there clues there as to what is wrong ?
FWIW the card works fine in 10.0 and 10.2
Thanks
