Tony Mugan, This bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any
activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If
so, could you please test for this with the latest development release
of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com
/daily-live/current/ .

If it remains an issue, could you please just make a comment to this.

Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available (not the daily folder) following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example:
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.13-rc1

This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's
Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your
understanding.

Title:
  Wireless with RT3090 chipset does not work in Precise Pangolin

Status in The Linux Kernel:
  Invalid
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I have a Sony Vaio laptop with an rt3090 wifi adapter built-in.

  It does not work in Precise Pangolin Beta.

  In older versions of Ubuntu, I was able to use a PPA which repackaged the manufacturer's drivers.
  To get it to work, I also had to blacklist a series of drivers in Ubuntu.

  These are no longer being packaged and the source as supplied does not
  compile against 3.x kernels.

  The driver source is here
  http://www.ralinktech.com/en/04_support/license.php?sn=5015

  The PPA is here

  I have tried mainline kernel v3.4 rc2 and it works!!!
