Firmware
Open Ralink linux driver page: http://www.ralinktech.com/support.php?s=2 download firmware archive for the RT28XX, then unzip it and place the file rt2860.bin in the /lib/firmware/ folder.

CPU Frequency scaling
Various softwares are available to display and manipulate cpufreq, including daemons, (e.g. sys-power/cpufreqd) userspace utilities, (e.g. sys-power/cpufrequtils) and dockapps. Frequency is scaled between 800MHz and 1.6GHz independently for each core. (i.e. CPU0 and CPU1)

Kernel configuration may be required.

lspci -vs 00:1f.2

Multimedia Card reader
It should work out of the box, as it is in fact a USB SD/SDHC Card Reader connected to an internal USB port on the motherboard.

Kernel config
You'll get access to hwmon via /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon0/device/ path.

I'm not very familiar with i2c sensors, but it seems to be working fine.
