Success! Okay, with the manufacturers driver. For those with a similar problem, please follow these steps:
Download the latest driver from http://www.ralinktech.com/ralink/Home/Support/Linux.html For the rt61, the correct file was http://www.ralinktech.com.tw/data/drivers/2009_0123_RT61_Linux_STA_v1.1.2.3.tar.bz2 Extract the file Follow their instructions, **BUT** after you copy Makefile.6 to Makefile, you need to change this line: CFLAGS+= $(WFLAGS) To this: EXTRA_CFLAGS+= $(WFLAGS) then follow their instructions. In the rt61sta.dat file, I had to change from 1 to 0: NativeWpa=0 I also put my SSID, Channel, AuthMode, EncrypType and WPAPSK in that file, but I don't know if it was needed as it should be picked up from /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf Remember to remove and blacklist the broken rt61pci module! sudo modprobe -r rt61pci (Optional) Add this to your /etc/network/interfaces: iface ra0 inet dhcp wireless-essid YOURSSID pre-up wpa_supplicant -Dwext -ira0 -c/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -B -f/var/log/wpa_supplicant.ra0.log post-down killall -q wpa_supplicant Now execute: sudo ifup ra0 If you are as fortunate is I it works! PS - I am on amd64 and this works just fine. I would like to get wlan0 with rt61pci working as I'd rather not have to maintain a source package, but hey, I'll take what I can get. -- Upgrading to Jaunty breaks rt61pci wireless https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/366170 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
