Quaker,
I had several problems with the same device (Cisco Linksys Wireless-G Compact
USB Network Adapter WUSB54GC, purchased in the UK) but have eventually got
things configured, mainly thanks to your extensive configuration notes in a
similar thread. After installing rum, I also had to "update_drv", and I tailed
/var/adm/messages whilst attempting to plug the device in until I saw a
response. ( My device was supplied with a usb extension cable; I had to plug
the device in directly without this to get it to work. But that might just be a
quirk of my motherboard)

The only difference is I have build snv_101, and as far as I know when I
researched this usb device it does have the Ralink chip. So either the problems
are fixed in the newer build, or perhaps other peoples' devices were assembled
in another factory with different components.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Stewart
