There are new drivers available at RaLink's site which compile on
Hardy's kernel. However, after testing them this morning, they don't
work properly. Similar issue as with the ndiswrapper drivers mentioned
above, the card can scan the network but not connect to anything.

An update on the Windows drivers with ndiswrapper. I discovered it
worked on another network, so after some tweaking on my network at home
I managed to get it working. However, for the fact that the current
settings are now identical to the previous settings, and the fact that I
managed to get it working initially under the exact same circumstances
it failed to work under before, I consider the bandaid patch of using
ndiswrapper drivers to be UNSTABLE. Also, the range of the wireless
seems to be less than I think it should be (I'm currently getting
between 40-50% strength with this laptop, whereas my ASUS A6Jc which is
2 years old is getting 80-90% in the same position, and the range was
greater under Windows Vista [*shudder*]).
