[Bug 496093] Re: [lucid] rt2860 frequently fails to connect to mixed mode WPA/WPA2 secured wireless networks

[bornagainpenguin]

PS: Installing the ralink driver works despite error messages if you
follow the guide linked here:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1045703

There will be complaints about sizes but if you follow the guide it WILL
work and fix the WiFi situation, at least until another update comes out
and borks everything again.  Still a horrible place to put users in
though...and considering the guide was written for Intrepid that ought
give some idea how long this has been a problem and also make it clear
this isn't about exotic hardware on the eeepcs or other netbooks.
(Although given the volume of netbooks now being sold and the numbers of
which came with Linux preinstalled how anyone can argue with a straight
face they are exotic hardware is beyond me...  This whole thing is going
to be a black eye on the face of Linux if these types of issues keep
happening.)
