Title:
  1286:2044 [Microsoft Surface Pro 2] Marvell 88W8797 not working in
  14.04 kernel 3.13.0-24-generic

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Marvell WiFi on Surface Pro 2 does not work in a fresh install of 14.04 with 3.13.0-24 kernel. I had the same issue in 12.04, but others reported that this was resolved in Raring http://askubuntu.com/questions/257600/marvells-wireless-driver-not-recognized/262010 . The drivers mentioned in the post are already in place:

  And system surely recognises the Marvell WiFi:

  But when creating a new WiFi connection using network manager, the
  only mac address it sees is that of my external D-Link receiver.
