Re: Trying to install the Ralink wireless drivers

I can't get a kernel image more recent than 2.6.21, I've tried
apt-get -t unstable install kernel-image
but it says I've the most recent kernel.

I've just upgraded to lenny, but this hasn't helped.

Also, using apt-cache search I couldn't find any information about the
compiled modules.

Wondering if I wouldn't just be better off downloading an updated source
and trying to do it manually.

Don't need need to compile drivers, but upgrade to kernel 2.6.22


Install the RT2x00 wireless network drivers -loadable kernel modules for
wireless network cards using Ralink RT2x00 chips.

something like rt2x00-modules-2.6.22-2-686

Install wireless tools

Install RutilT which is GTK config

Run RutilT


Does this help?
