>Description:
Wireless cards using the ral chipset aren't declared in the GENERIC kernel.
>How-To-Repeat:
Insert a wireless card that is using a ral chipset and it wont get recognized even if you have cardbus enabled.
>Fix:
add this:
#ral* at cardbus? function ? # ralink wifi
to the GENERIC kernel (seems it has to be commented like the other cardbus network cards devices)
