Greg, at least the following two config variables should be set to 'y'. Otherwise the driver does not expose wext correctly and cannot be used with wpa_supplicant (and NM).

Heh, config.mk in that directory does nothing for the build of that driver. Give me a minute, and I'll tweak the Makefile properly... -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I'm sorry to reopen this but I'm facing a nasty bug on my 901 and I really suspect that this ralink driver is the root of the problem..
No, this is a separate issue, it will be addressed in the original bug report, not here, sorry. Closing out. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
