OK now I'm confused.
I seem to have the latest 2.5.0.0 driver compiled with no errors and installed 
successfully (Ubuntu 11.10 64bit)
lsmod shows the rt3572sta module loaded but not linked to any thing ??
iwconfig reports that I now have ra0 (previously had only eth0, lo and usb0 [my 
android])
rt28xx does not seem to be getting loaded at all (which is good I believe ??)
synaptic shows that I have wpasupplicant installed (not wpasupplicant:i386)

now here's the strange part....
gnome-network-manager on 2 occassions displayed the WUSB600Nv2 correctly and 
actually scanned networks perfectly. However upon attempting to connect to my 
network (WPA2) the entire PC froze, causing me to power the machine off twice :S
So I make uninstall, manually remove /etc/Wireless/RT2870STA/ folder , make, 
sudo make install again - now gnome-network-manager doesn't recognise it ??!

another strange part...
with gnome-network-manager removed and using wicd: even after make uninstall 
(RT3572STA driver), wicd seems to be able to scan and attempt to connect to 
networks?? However, again it fails on connecting to WPA2 networks (bad 
password) though it will connect to unsecure networks........???

It seems like I'm so close to getting this working, only a few small bugs that 
need ironed out. At least I now know that manually compiling the 2.5.0.0 driver 
does allow the system to detect it and scan networks. I just can't figure out 
why it won't show up in gnome-network-manager again and why it wont' connect to 
WPA2 networks.

Any help/advice on this?
