Which driver could F10 possibly setup? There is no rt2860sta module in the 
fedora flavored kernel and I suppose no other module is responsible for 
the ralink chipset id.

Besides, basically my WLAN works - but the connection procedure is far 
from beeing comfortabale or even acceptable. The problems *seems* to lie 
not between the driver and the hardware, but between the driver and 
userland apps like wpa_supplicant and iwconfig.

What I really would like to know is whether there is any hardware 
difference between the XP and Linux version of the Eee 1000H model... Or 
my Eee is just jinxed - it would be the most plausible explanation. ;)
