The RT2860 may support RT3090 chipset too, but "rt2860" package from official openSUSE repository seems to do nothing. In Mandriva 2010.0 the hardware is not supoprted too, but you can add support installing a package, there's any way to do the same in openSUSE 11.2? i Have a netbook and a notebook with the same hardware, and is a very common hardware i think. Thank you.

According to Marcus (Wed, 18 Nov 2009 22:44:53 +0100) The rt3090 comment was probably for a newer kernel. 2.6.31 did not have it in staging yet, and 2.6.32 still has it in staging. Please open a Enhancement bug, request merging the rt3090 driver in our 11.2 kernel or so. Ciao, Marcus I can do a modprobe -vvv rt2860sta, but that doesn't do a thing Noticed on the suse forum a reference to firmware at http://www.ralinktech.com.tw/ But that's a unreadable taiwanese site I did Install "kernel-firmware" and "rt280" package, noticed the RT2860STA.dat file. (without any other info, I presume i should be copied to /lib/firmware??) And noticed a rt2860.bin file over-there, Googling further i found: # $/sbin/insmod rt2860sta.ko # $/sbin/ifconfig ra0 inet YOUR_IP up But that only yields: ra0 unknown interface, No such device trying to add this kernelmodule to the device with "yast lan" doesn't help either. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I'd appreciate some testing once test kernels are available at: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Kernel:/openSUSE-11.2/openSUSE_11.... The changelog entry you're looking for is obvious since it contains about 120 patches. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
