# rpm -q  rt2870 kmod-rt2870
rt2870-2.4.0.1-1.fc13.noarch
kmod-rt2870-2.4.0.1-1.fc13.1.i686

# iwconfig wlan0
wlan0     No such device
# iwconfig ra0
ra0       No such device

Notice my previous post, seems that the .ko module needs
to be compatible with the latest version, as the one I am using
is for a previous kernel version - I think this is the culprit.

I think I will need to wait for RMPFusion to generate a new
package or there may me the option to use akmod, dunno.
