Karmic has had a working driver for the last several releases, and in
the last few days (or maybe longer) the function key to toggle the radio
on/off on my eeepc 901 has been working :-).

BTW, the driver implementation in Karmic (don't know the source) is
*much* better than the RaLink 2.1.2.0 driver I've been limping along
with on Jaunty (see comment above
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/339891/comments/104).
The only thing[s] keeping me from switching entirely to Karmic at this
time are the occasional brakages on updates and the screen saver /
suspend timers don't currently work (at least on my eeepc 901, 'though I
can suspend using the function key / closing the lid).

AFAIK there have been no relevant updates to the kernel in Jaunty and I
have to rebuild / install 2.1.2.0 every time the Jaunty kernel gets
updated.
