I can confirm on 9.04 beta UNR 20090328 on the popular Hercules ecafe EC-900/H60G-IA notebook that wifi WPA2 connection does not work. Non WPA wifi works though (and the wired connection works too). I tested WPA2 from another machine with the same ubuntu and it worked.

Hardware has:

02:00.0 Network controller [0280]: RaLink RT2860 [1814:0781]

When trying to connect dmesg says:

[ 686.730040] ===>rt_ioctl_giwscan. 5(5) BSS returned, data->length = 515
[ 686.730711] ==>rt_ioctl_siwfreq::SIOCSIWFREQ[cmd=0x8b04] (Channel=1)

Would be nice to fix, the native distribution shipped with this ecafe notebook has no problem connecting to WPA2 networks so there must be a correct driver somewhere.
