 ==== Kernel modules rt2x00 ====
+**NOTE** wireless modules **rt2x00** are now in the vanilla kernel (at least in 2.6.26). We use the **''rt73usb''** one.
 Compiling this modules requires the **the source tree of your running kernel**, and the relative **kernel headers**. In Debian this menas installing two packages: **linux-source-$(uname -r | cut -f1 -d-)** and **linux-headers-$(uname -r)**.
