Description
The wireless driver for ralink rt2860 is not in the 2.6.29 kernel with F11.
It looks like this module is available in rpmfusion but so far, due to kernel version differences between SOAS beta and the current f11 repository it is impossible to get it installed.
rpmfusion module name is rt2860-kmod.
Hopefully after the beta freezes and settles down this will be easier to deal with. I'd be happy if I could install it optionally within my own SOAS, but for a good end user experience I think it makes sense to work on common hardware people will attempt to use.
