Thread: RT5390 - Need help.

ok, let me start off saying this:
first day using linux distro, i've been doing research around problem , seems common.
i've been reading lot of threads , of them have been solved people call "noobs"... assume i'm more of noob them.

anyways, didn't manage find drivers linked chili555 if recall.
instead downloaded rt539x pcie http://www.ralinktech.com/en/04_supp...ort.php?sn=501

problem have absolutely no clue on how install them, readme file provided in download file seems outdated.

now, appreciate if tell me how install drivers step step.

hope manages me , don't frustrated @ lack of knowledge.
