Installing rt61-cvs from serialmonkey

Hello,
The rt2x00 drivers that comes with kernel are very buggy and it doesnt allow me to go faster than 1M
more info here: http://rt2x00.serialmonkey.com/phpBB/vi … a&start=45

So I want to install rt61-cvs drivers: http://rt2x00.serialmonkey.com/rt61-cvs-daily.tar.gz

When doing Make, make install everything seems fine but then after i

modprobe -r rt61pci

and

modprobe rt61

No wlan0 shows up in iwconfig

lsmod | grep rt61

Shows :

rt61                  212868  0

I dont know what else to do. One more question how do i blacklist the rt61pci, so it does'nt loads up on startup ?

See /etc/rc.conf for module blacklisting.

The legacy driver probably creates a different interface name - have a look in dmesg after loading it.

Re: Installing rt61-cvs from serialmonkey

The thing is that no matter if i blacklist those modules in rc.conf they still are loaded on startup. here's what my rc.conf modules looks like:

MODULES=(mii slhc via-rhine ac97_bus snd-mixer-oss snd-pcm-oss snd-seq-oss snd-seq-device snd-seq-midi-event snd-seq snd-page-alloc snd-pcm snd-rawmidi snd-timer snd snd-mpu401-uart snd-ac97-codec snd-via82xx soundcore !rt2x00llib !rt2x00pci !rt61pci rt61)

And new module only loads if i write like this :

modprobe -r rt61pci
depmod -a
modprobe rt61

So how can i automatise it on startup ?
