RALink wifi drivers

Our new laptop (an HP Pavilion G6-2119TU) has been prone to crashing once or twice a day (four times today) because the wifi driver for it is unstable.  I'm hoping that the driver from RALink is more stable.

Had to recompile from source, so posting the link here so I can find it again for when I need to rebuild the module on kernel upgrades or whenever I upgrade Mint.
