Right, I should have made clear that I was talking about the 'legacy' drivers (rt2500 in my case).

I tried rt2x00 a while back, but never got it working without crashes. Eventually I switched back to my other wireless device (a prism54 card, which had its own driver odyssey, from prism54 to islsm to p54, which works great).

I just noticed that both p54 and rt2x00 are showing up in linus' kernel tree so it appears that they will be included in 2.6.24. Meaning that all the people who currently curse at NM for not supporting their ralink devices can stop once they upgrade to 2.6.24. :)
