[opensuse-kernel] Configuration change requested for kernel 3.0
With Build 0186 of the KDE Live CD and kernel 3.0, no driver for the PCI version of the Ralink 2800 devices is configured as shown below: larry@linux-4khf:~> zcat /proc/config.gz | grep 2800 # CONFIG_RT2800PCI is not set CONFIG_RT2800USB=m CONFIG_RT2800USB_RT33XX=y # CONFIG_RT2800USB_RT35XX is not set CONFIG_RT2800USB_RT53XX=y # CONFIG_RT2800USB_UNKNOWN is not set CONFIG_RT2800_LIB=m larry@linux-4khf:~> I think this driver was not selected in earlier versions because of a conflict with the staging driver rt2860; however, that driver was removed in 3.0.

So, what specifically should be enabled here, CONFIG_RT2800PCI=m? thanks, greg k-h -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+help@opensuse.org

Should this be enabled as well?
CONFIG_RT2800USB_RT53XX=y # CONFIG_RT2800USB_UNKNOWN is not set
And this one too? thanks, greg k-h -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+help@opensuse.org

Yes, CONFIG_RT2800PCI=m is what is needed. I think CONFIG_RT2800USB_RT35XX and CONFIG_RT2800USB_UNKNOWN can be left unset. For CONFIG_RT2800USB_UNKNOWN, the wireless developers transfer devices from that category to the correct one as soon as they discover that they work.

Ok, I've now updated the master branch in the kernel, so it will show up in the next releases. greg k-h -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+help@opensuse.org
