I had done this back in F11 to get the RT2860 working....but it was a long time ago. It did work fine I just decided not to use the wireless card on my desktop system.

Install kmod-rt3070 which will pull in the dependencies for the kernel you're running. -- This file will self-destruct in five minutes. èæå æåè / ååååå èåæ
