Description Adrien 2012-02-25 22:30:03 CET
Hello,

Description of problem:

I installed Mageia 2 beta 1 (64 bits, KDE), and I have a RT5390 pci network card. It's recognized by the system :
lspci
03:00.0 Network controller: Ralink corp. RT5390 Wireless 802.11n 1T/1R PCIe

Draknetcenter shows it but no wifi network appears, although mine is working (it also works with Mageia 1 with a manual installed driver).

The module "rt2800pci" seems to be running :
lsmod | grep rt
rt2800pci              18476  0 
rt2800lib              54065  1 rt2800pci
crc_ccitt              12667  1 rt2800lib
rt2x00pci              14476  1 rt2800pci
rt2x00lib              50538  3 rt2800pci,rt2800lib,rt2x00pci
mac80211              253437  3 rt2800lib,rt2x00pci,rt2x00lib
cfg80211              193998  2 rt2x00lib,mac80211
eeprom_93cx6           12725  1 rt2800pci
iTCO_vendor_support    13718  1 iTCO_wdt

But there's an error :
dmesg | grep rt
phy0 -> rt2x00lib_request_firmware: Error - Failed to request Firmware.

(This last line is repeated many times, and there's nothing else).

I can install the driver manually, but I've seen that this driver is include in kernel since 3.2, and :
uname -r
3.2.6-desktop-3.mga2

So there's probably a bug somewhere.

How reproducible:
Start Mageia 2 and try to connect to wifi network.

Thanks in advance for your help ;)
