rt2x00-modules-2.6.23-grml isn't included within grml 1.1 because we
had too many conflicts with rt2400-modules-2.6.23-grml and
rt2500-modules-2.6.23-grml. I'd like to investigate on that in the
next few days/weeks with people having the appropriate hardware
(please let me know if you are such a person :)).

I've uploaded rt2x00-modules-2.6.23-grml for you to grml-testing
pool which provides the module:

  /lib/modules/2.6.23-grml/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/rt61pci.ko

So just grab
http://deb.grml.org/pool/main/r/rt2x00/rt2x00-modules-2.6.23-grml_2.0.12%2bgit20071103-3%2bgrml.06_i386.deb
and give it a try. Please let me know whether it works for you.

> ...and not to forget:
> grml1.1 - great work - congratulations to the team around Mika!

Thanks :)
