Public bug reported: Binary package hint: linux-source
Support for rt2x00 driver is currently a must. Bug 37120 describes the currently Ubuntu provided rt2500 driver not working with networkmanager (wpasupplicant not supported at all) and therefore doesn't work for any users who want to have a frontend for their 2500 network card. rt2x00 supports any wpasupplicant encryption using wext for more than two years now and IMO is stable enough for inclusion into the main Ubuntu kernel and should superseed the current legacy rt2500, rt2600, rt2650 and rt2700usb drivers. The problem I see with the latest rt2x00 source and Ubuntu kernel is that the kernel headers are already patched with the legacy ieee80211 drivers and you can't compile rt2x00 on Ubuntu out of the box anymore. It does compile fine with vanilla kernel.
