Hi,
I am trying to get my WMP54G wireless card working under amd64 (etch). I tried
compiling the kernel driver from ralink, but while it compiles ok (lots of
warnings but no errors) when I try to load it I get no errors, but when I try
to bring up the card I get an error and the system becomes incredibly
unstable (and the card does not work).

Anyone had any luck getting this card working? What about with another driver?
Anton
I have the card working in a P-III on Debian Etch. I think you need the
rt2500-source package and you need to install the corresponding module
using module-assistant. I had tried the ralink driver as well, but that
was only to get the card working in master mode. I wasn't successful in
that. Using the debian rt2500 package makes the card work as a wireless
client without any problems. I don't use that card on a regular basis so
cannot say much about stability of the connection.
