Workaround as described in comment #21 works on a COMPAQ Mini CQ10-410SF netbook (Atom N450 processor) with Ubuntu 10.04 and WIFI link working with WPA/WPA2 encryption. Ubuntu 10.04 installed today from the Canonical free CD, all updates ( 250 modified files) performed through wire LAN before trying to set up the WIFI link , without success, although the WIFI LED could be turned ON/OFF through the relevant key. When looking at the existing /etc/Wireless folder before trying any workaround, it was not empty: there was (and still is) a RT2860A empty subfolder. Using the workaround from comment #21 added in /etc/Wireless the RT2860STA subfolder containing the RT2860STA.dat empty file. Then the WIFI networks detection worked fine, and setting my own WIFI link with its WPA/WPA2 encryption was easy. Hope this can help other users of this COMPAQ netbook.
