Everything compiled fine, openSUSE was able to scan and connect to access points after installation, but when i access the internet a kernel panic occurs after ~5sec (time varies based on the data usage). So i humbly request you to please provide the solution for the same, you can reach me through email or reply to my thread (probably faster as i don't check my email everyday).

You'll have to contact Mediatek about the drivers that you downloaded from their web site.
None of us on this mailing list have created this driver, nor are we supporting it.

Note that the standard kernel does contain support for the RT3290 chipset in its rt2x00 driver since kernel version 3.6 or 3.7, so you might give that a try.
