Is yum getting confused with getting the right packages based on the current kernel version I am running or is there a problem with the RPMFusion packages?
The problem with the above rt2870 versions, is that it fails to install rt2870sta.ko: in /lib/modules/2.6.32.16-141.fc12.i686/extra/rt2870/rt2870sta.ko which I need in order to get my wireless working again.

Some additional information....
I was able to get F12 on another partition to work with my wireless - it turns out that on this "broken" F12 partition, yum can only see rt2870-2.1.2.0 & kmod-rt2870-2.1.2.0 whereas on the successful partition, yum saw: rt2870-2.4.0.1 & kmod-rt2870-2.4.0.1.
I cannot fathom what is going on here... somehow yum (or RPMFusion) is controlling which version is being seen and not the other...
Note that the working partition was a dd copy of the "broken" partition and yet, somehow I was able to get 2.4.0.1 installed, whereas I cannot with the "broken" partition, it sees only 2.1.2.0...
So, how can I force yum to see/get the correct version?

Ok, problem solved!
I downloaded and installed rt2870-2.4.0.1-1.fc12.noarch.rpm from RPMFusion and now my wireless works!
What a pain it was!

I would try removing the old version. Then try yum installing it back. yum should be smart enough to install the latest version. If not, it would have to be a bug?

Seems so... I already tried removing/installing rt2870/kmod, several times, and yum always seems to pick 2.1.2.0 - every single time. So I gave up, did the direct download and install and it worked. v2.1.2.0 is definitely hosed, at least for me.
