There is already a discussion on linux-wireless regarding this.
Unfortunately all previous attempts to upgrade the firmware seems to
have failed.
Last week a new patch was send, so hopefully that will be applied.

I agree with 1, but unfortunately the policy of linux-firmware is that
the firmware cannot be removed when a driver exists which uses it
(regardless of the presence of that driver inside the latest
linux-kernel release).
I also agree with 2, but that apparently is quite hard. Multiple people
have send patches, I hope that the last attempt of last week will be
accepted and applied.

NACK.
1) You didn't send this patch inline
2) There is no such thing as different firmware filenames
for the rt2800pci drivers. Ralink did release some stuff under different names,
but they are basically different versions of the same file.
So you can rename your rt3090.bin file to rt2860.bin file, and both rt2860 and
rt3090 devices can operate using it.

Larry, Ivo, thank you for your time.
rt3090.bin comes with linux-firmware package in my Fedora 14.
In Fedora 15 Beta seems to be the same version (20110304).
So, they are not up-to-date.
The plan:
1. Remove rt3090.bin from linux-firmware because is confusing.
2. Update linux-firmware's rt2860.bin to Larry's (attached) version.
Does everybody agree?

NACK. That version of rt2860.bin is really old.
Please remove your patch and try with the attached version of rt2860.bin. It is
version 29.
