I upgraded to openSuse 11.1 and now I could not get my wifi working. Wifi was working ok with 11.0.
I’m trying to get my usb wifi dongle (WUSB54GC) to work on openSuse 11.1 on my laptop (Toshiba Satellite 2410)
I downloaded the driver for this dongle from http://www.ralinktech.com.tw/data/drivers/2009_0206_RT73_Linux_STA_Drv1.1.0.2.tar.bz2 and followed the instruction on compilation and installation. But the LED on the dongle does not go on. I did find some relevant error message from dmesg showing.
Could someone help out!
