Description:

I've been using this driver for a while from AUR with a oneliner patch to add support for my WLAN card. All that's missing is adding the cards USB ID so the module can recognize it. I'd be really grateful if this could be integrated into the staging/rt2870/rt2870sta.ko module, since using the AUR driver is problematic when it already exists in the staging/ dir (and recompiling every time I reinstall/upgrade the kernel is also a pain in the butt). The patch is attached.

Additional info:
* package version(s)
