The driver rt2800pci does not seem to be built for kernel 2.6.37. The output of
zcat /proc/config.gz | grep RT2800
yields:

The first two lines are contradictory, but I believe the second as the Ralink RT3090, which uses rt2800pci, does not work, but does when compat-wireless is loaded. If CONFIG_RT2800PCI were defined, there should also be entries for CONFIG_RT2800PCI_RT30XX, CONFIG_RT2800PCI_RT30XX, and CONFIG_RT2800PCI_UNKNOWN.
Which kernel package are you looking at (desktop, i386, x86-64, etc.)?
And what should we set these values to in order to be "correct"?
I'm helping someone from forums.opensuse.org. His kernel is desktop, but I'm not sure if i386 or x86_64. I see the same problem with default (i386) and desktop (x86_64), thus it seems to affect all flavors and architectures.
On my x86_64 system running kernel 2.6.39-rc5 from wireless-testing, I get the following:
CONFIG_RT2800PCI=m # CONFIG_RT2800PCI_RT33XX is not set # CONFIG_RT2800PCI_RT35XX is not set # CONFIG_RT2800PCI_RT53XX is not set CONFIG_RT2800USB=m # CONFIG_RT2800USB_RT33XX is not set # CONFIG_RT2800USB_RT35XX is not set # CONFIG_RT2800USB_UNKNOWN is not set CONFIG_RT2800_LIB=m
I just did a quick make xconfig run on the openSUSE 2.6.37 sources with the following diff between the standard config and what I think should be used:

Do you want a different driver enabled here, right? Why?
Only CONFIG_RT2800PCI needs to be set. That CONFIG_RT2800PCI_PCI is only used in the build process. It is not a real driver. This was opened in bugzilla.novell.com as Bug 691073. I tried to assign it to you but that failed. Thanks, Larry -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+help@opensuse.org
