Can confirm this bug on a Surface Pro 2 with the same Marvel wifi chip (1286:2044) after installing Xubuntu Vivid (clean install, no upgrade).
For me, the wireless connection will be established, but as soon as I start a browser to use it, the system freezes immediately, so there is nothing in syslog. The Marvel wifi chip worked in Ubuntu 14.10 after downloading latest firmware from Marvel's git and putting it into /lib/firmware/mrvl/. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1449438 Title: Marvell 88W8797 wifi (module mwifiex) does not work on Surface Pro To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1449438/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
