Hi John,
Thank you for the bug report. I was looking at the Ubuntu 12.04 kernel,
which is based on upstream v3.2. There does appear to be support for
RT5390 via the rt2800pci driver:
commit 60687ba710359f32343b7630dc05d3811ef5bf4c
Author: RA-Shiang Tu <shiang...@ralinktech.com>
Date: Sun Feb 20 13:57:46 2011 +0100
rt2x00: Add support for RT5390 chip
Add new RT5390 chip support
config RT2800PCI_RT53XX
bool "rt2800pci - Include support for rt53xx devices (EXPERIMENTAL)"
depends on EXPERIMENTAL
default y
---help---
This adds support for rt53xx wireless chipset family to the
rt2800pci driver.
Supported chips: RT5390
~/ubuntu-precise/debian.master/config$ grep -rn "RT2800PCI_RT53XX" *
config.common.ubuntu:4299:CONFIG_RT2800PCI_RT53XX=y
Even with this support included, it appears you are still experiencing
some issues. Could you please provide the following information when
running the latest 3.2.0-18.28 Precise 12.04 kernel:
* dmesg > dmesg.log
* sudo lspci -vnvn > lspci-vnvn.log
* A detailed description of the exact issue you are seeing when running this
latest kernel
As you may understand, having to carry an out of tree driver (ie 539x)
for the life of an LTS release is not our ideal solution. If the in
tree driver could be fixed instead, that would be best and everyone (not
just Ubuntu) would benefit from the solution. Thanks in advance.
