I posted a rough patch a week or so ago, I'm going to post a better version hopefully this weekend. In any case, run is USB only, ral is the correct driver. I've been lagging on the patch, work & a new system to play took priority :). What vendor & device id do you have? If you are comfortable compiling a kernel module it'd be nice to have someone test (especially LEDs, as I have mine in a funky WWAN slot) with a rt2860/3090 device. Thanks, Matt
