I've just confirmed the experimental kernel for i686 to work with my USB
N11; or at least to recognize it properly:

iwconfig | grep wlan1 -A5 yields (as expected for a working set up on a
laptop with built-in wifi):

wlan1     RTxx70 Wireless  ESSID:""  Nickname:""
          Mode:Auto  Frequency=2.412 GHz
          Link Quality=10/100  Signal level:0 dBm  Noise level:-143 dBm
          Rx invalid nwid:0  Rx invalid crypt:0  Rx invalid frag:0
          Tx excessive retries:0  Invalid misc:0   Missed beacon:0

I've not yet attempted to configure the device for connection with my
local wireless network; mainly because the experimental kernel does not
boot to an X environment for me (and WPA2-PSK environments are not my
idea of commandline fun); I suspect the fact it enables KMS by default.
I guess the best bet is to try nomodeset to get around this issue for
more thorough testing.
