Hi
I've installed a fresh copy of 8-CURRENT 05/09 AMD64 snapshot on my 
laptop which has a ralink pci express mini card, the device is detected 
by the kernel correctly & the rum driver attaches however the card 
doesn't work, ifconfig rum0 scan or list scan results in:
ifconfig: unable to get scan results.
I've only just signed up to this list but I've had a brief look through 
the archive for the last month or so & I see that rwatson@ posted about 
drivers which are flagged with IFF_NEEDSGIANT are to be removed & rum(4) 
is one of them, looking at repository it looks like a new rum driver was 
put into place 8 days ago,
