Experimental support for the Ralink RT3060 chip contained within your
device was enabled in rt2800pci at linux-2.6 2.6.38-5 (Debian bug
#623808). This conflicts with the out-of-tree rt3562sta driver made
available by the vendor.

out-of-tree vendor driver, as the removed directory will
reinstated/repopulated during future linux-image-* package updates.
