[Bug 1449438] Re: Marvell 88W8797 wifi (module mwifiex) does not work on Surface Pro
@wilk: After pairing with the car BT, go to settings > sound. You should
see the bluetooth adapter as a sound device. Select it if it's not
selected. Now you should be able to choose a profile. For me, one is a
monophone profile for phone calls (HSP/HFP), the other one is a Hi-Fi
profile (A2DP sink), which should be stereo. I can choose it, but it
gives me no stereo playback, and if I go into sound settings again, the
profile is reset to HSP/HFP.
Thanks for your trouble ...

Title:
Marvell 88W8797 wifi (module mwifiex) does not work on Surface Pro
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
I've been running Ubuntu 14.10 on a Microsoft Surface Pro. After some
initial problems (see
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1165938) (fixed
by kernel updates I guess) the wifi was working fine. Since the
upgrade to 15.04 the problems are back: I can connect to a wifi
network, the connection is working for a few seconds but drops right
after. I attached the relevant entries in dmes.log.
I tried installing the marvell firmware from git://git.marvell.com
/mwifiex-firmware.git, that didn't change anything. I also tried the
mainline kernel from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-
ppa/mainline/v4.1-rc1-vivid/: the connection is again working for a
few seconds but the whole system hangs afterwards.
