Title:
  M$ Surface Pro && Wi-Fi 88W8797

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I have the same problem as reported by shane.
  I had success ***only for a time*** with this chip, but i cannot get things to work again.
  I have first used an Ovislink usb dongle connected to an usb hub and a usb Logitech mouse on the hub. Then the marvell started to work, but only for approx. 15 min. Since the Wi-Fi seemed to work, i tried a M$ wireless mouse (Bluetooth). I have to notice that the wireless M$ mouse also worked.
  Unfornately, i am not able to reproduce these devices to work again.
