That one still has the virgin install with the FIT-PC2 kernel, which I'm assuming, has the WiFi drivers?
Sorry, I talked about the Image available at
http://fit-pc2.com/download/ubuntu/releases/ but this are the original 8.04 images. However, the instructions at
http://www.fit-pc2.com/wiki/index.php?t ... buntu_9.10 are known to work.
When it comes to compiling kernels, that's when things start to get complicated. There must be another answer?
I suggested you compile the driver as module, not the entire kernel. I did it once on Ubuntu, but when using SLAX i did this automated on every boot up, it is really not a big deal. Here some notes I took in january for SLAX -- things might have changed:
1) Fetch the linux rt3090 driver from
http://www.ralinktech.com/support.php?s=2
2) Decompress it
3) Bring the wireless interface down
4) Unload the rt3090 driver currently in use (
rmmod rt3090, rt3090sta, rt2860 and rt2860sta)
5) Edit ./os/linux/config.mk to suit your needs -- especially look at HAS_WPA_SUPPLICANT and HAS_NATIVE_WPA_SUPPLICANT_SUPPORT.
6) make clean; make; sudo make install
7) Edit RT2860STA.dat to suit your needs -- especially have a look at CountryRegion (my value: 1), CountryRegionABand (my value: 1), CountryCode (my value: DE) and WirelessMode (my value: 0).
7) mkdir -p /etc/Wireless/RT2860STA/
8) Copy RT2860STA.dat to above location
9) Load the driver via modprobe
10) Setup wireless
**edit**
Uhm, all of thois might not be necessary. Are you able to scan for networks? On what channel operates the accesspoint? Maybe you just need to check step 7 on your system?
Could you provide the relevant part of dmesg output?
