Title:
  wifi surface pro 2

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Ubuntu 15.04 during installation when connecting to wifi access point
  system hangs completely, desktop is shown but no response from
  keyboard or mouse.

  Can only proceed with installation if wifi is disconnected, once
  installed system hangs within seconds of connection to wifi access
  point.

  WORKAROUND: to resolve issue wifi driver must be changed:
  http://git.marvell.com/?p=mwifiex-firmware.git;a=blob;f=mrvl/usb8797_uapsta.bin

  replace usb8797_uapsta.bin /lib/firmware/mrvl
