[Bug 460436] Re: rt2870sta version bump to 2.2.0.0

[Ari]

Hi - the driver included in Lucid is very obsolete, below is the
included driver info (from a lucid fresh install). The shipped driver
(1.8.1.1) is six releases below current.

The current driver available from the vendor is 2.3.0.0 (link provided
in the bug description). For instance, the shipped driver does not
support wireless-n mode.

Reopening the bug.

Thanks
