Hello I just bought a new COMPAQ Presario CQ57-356SA laptop, and I'm having problems enabling the wireless. When I start the laptop the Wi-Fi icon glows orange (off), when Windows boots up somewhere during the splash screen it goes blue (on).

However, Natty doesn't recognize my wireless driver at all saying "ath0 - no wireless extension".

Wireless works fine on 11.10, but I don't really like and and would rather stick with gtk2.

The wireless driver is called Ralink RT5390.

I've tried loading kernel 3 onto Natty, but that didn't resolve my problem.

Any help would be appreciated.

Since the openSUSE driver patches have been updated, the package version numbers of the commands must be changed as well.
