I installed "linux-backports-modules-wireless-lucid-generic" version 2.6.32.23.24 and rebooted. "modinfo rt2860sta" is reporting, that I use the new driver (version 2.1.0.0). So installation seems successful. Now I will have to test the connection extensively.
And I already found a quirk: The new driver doesn't support wireless "n" on my eeePC 1000h. Max. speed is 54 Mb/s. :-( The correct configuration file ( /etc/Wireless/RT2860STA/RT2860STA.dat ) is existing. -- [lucid] rt2860 frequently fails to connect to mixed mode WPA/WPA2 secured wireless networks https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/496093 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
