>Description:
NetBSD does not support the Ralink RT2760, RT2790, RT2860 and RT2890 wireless 
devices.

A driver exists in OpenBSD and I have completed most of the "get-it-to-compile" 
porting phase. However, I no longer have access to the relevant hardware. I am 
therefore submitting my effort uncomplete.

>How-To-Repeat:
Boot NetBSD 5.0 or above on hardware including a wireless device listed above.
>Fix:
Apply and complete attached patch (to be included in subsequent e-mails).
