(Get the code!)
@ Andy Whitcroft nd @ MMlosh:
yes that's right. I even did not have this second driver in my kernel. Here in LinuxMint 10 (based on maverick) I only had these drivers:
rt2870, rt2860/3090sta and rt2800pci. These three drivers were all loaded and this blocked the wifi from working in my case. The reason was, that all three drivers wanted to take over the card. So I had to do what I said in my instruction. In LinuxMint 10 the kernel is the 2.6.35-25-generic. In this kernel, the driver is named rt2860/3090sta.
If you do not unload them from the kernel, they are included. You only need to unload rt2800pci and rt2870 and to blacklist them.
@ MMlosh:
can it be possible, that you have unloaded the rt2860sta-driver from your kernel and that you have blacklisted it?? Then it is clear, that your WLAN does not work properly. The rt2860sta-driver is the best one included in the kernel.
If this is the case (that means if you did the above mentioned thing), then we need to get it out of the blacklist.conf and then follow my posted link to the instruction to get your card run properly.
