Description spsppl 2010-03-14 18:14:30 UTC

Alfa AWUS036NH USB dongle not found during setup, however the rt2800usb driver is loaded.
Correct driver is rt2870sta in staging.

To get this going I added 'rt2800usb' to the /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf then added rt2870sta to /etc/modules. Reboot and everything works well and proper info is populated in iwconfig, ifconfig.

results of ver_linux script, /proc/cpuinfo, /proc/modules, /proc/ioports, /proc/iomem, and lspci -vvv attached.
