Hi Cyril,
I patched manually 3.15.3 kernel and no longer need to force loading of the
rt2800usb driver in /etc/modprobe.d/ralink.conf nor explicitly call rt2800usb
in /etc/modules. Also I disabled in the RT2800 driver some option to support
loading of unsupported devices (don't have the .config handy to paste it correct
name).
Below is the dmesg showing the kernel loaded the driver based on the USB ID
seen:
