** Description changed:

  The WLI-UC-GNM USB wireless-n adapter is not functional in Ubuntu 11.04.
  It also doesn't work in the latest (as of now) kernel-ppa (2.6.39).
  
- After doing a bunch of research, I found that the simple fix is to add
- the USB ID to the rt2860 kernel driver. The USB ID for my adapter is
- 0411:01a2.
+ WORKAROUND: After doing a bunch of research, I found that the simple fix

  I've attached a patch against the ubuntu-natty git repository.
