Joseph: Are you sure the rt2860sta driver can definitely service the RT3090 chipset under Linux 3.x?
I have built and installed the latest Ralink rt2860sta driver. However I decided not to follow those instructions that were linked to in the other bug report since they were originally written for 11.04 where the staging drivers were still included under 2.x - they are not any more, hence why that particular command is probably failing for Hansen. After installation, an "lspci -v" doesn't show the module as available - only the built-in rt2800pci is listed. In theory if you did want to go ahead and get it to install all is needed after the "sudo make install" is to blacklist any currently loaded rt2x00 or rt2800 drivers (so rt2x00pci/lib/usb and rt2800pci/lib/usb), add a line with only "rt2860sta" in it (excl. quotes) to /etc/modules and reboot. If the driver is able to service the card, it will attempt to be loaded at boot. It is also apparently possible to build/install the more specific rt3090sta driver to service the RT3090 chipset - see here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/869502/comments/127 I've yet to try this since my workaround in #23 of installing a specific revision of compat-wireless, plus making sure to use 3.0.0.13 works for me. Unfortunately that patch/revision that worked for me has been reverted in later revisions of compat-wireless. However, overall I'm not sure trying to get these Ralink drivers to install is really the best approach (unless of course if successful they can be cleanly packaged up as DKMS modules in a PPA specifically for Oneiric). Wouldn't it be better to focus on getting the built-in rt2x00 driver working correctly? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/896582 Title: RT3090 Network speed are very low with Oneiric.
