Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better. However, I am closing it because the bug has been fixed
in the latest development version of Ubuntu - Oneiric Ocelot.
The only way of making rt3070 chipset work in older releases would be to
update the kernel, which is against the procedure of only pushing bug
fixes and security updates for "stable" releases, as it would be classed
as a new feature which might decrease stability of other chipsets which
use that kernel module. Your best bet for being able to use that chipset
in a stable release is to try installing Ubuntu 11.04 "Natty Narwhal". I
do not believe it is possible to just copy and paste binary modules from
release to release - you would have to update the whole kernel.
If you wish you can try updating your kernel in Maverick using the many
guides available on the internet, but this is not officially supported.
** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu)
Status: Incomplete => Fix Released
