[Mageia-dev] RaLink 3062 WiFi card

Hi

I've two PCs with the same RaLink 3062 WiFi card.
Those cards are currently (since kernel 2.6.38 or 37) supported by kernel 
(modules marked as stable).

The problem is that on one of the computers I've debian testing with 2.6.39 
kernel and it automatically loads proper modules and WiFi card works, and on 
Mageia PC nothing happens.

I tried both 2.6.38 and 3.0.0 kernels (on Mageia) and:
* no module is loaded automatically
* even if I load proper module manually, nothing happens (module seems to be 
somehow not related to proper device)

some info:
lspci -v

iwconfig

debian:
lo        no wireless extensions.

eth1      no wireless extensions.

eth0      no wireless extensions.

wlan0     IEEE 802.11bgn ....


mageia:
lo        no wireless extensions.

eth0      no wireless extensions.


any ideas what can be wrong (maybe blocked somewhere?) ?
I'm using Mageia 1, but for tests I've installed kernel 3.0.0 from Cauldron

Best regards
