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

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

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!!!
