Title:
  1286:2044 [Microsoft Surface Pro] Marvell 88W8797  wifi does not work

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  The wifi/bluetooth chip that the MS Surface Pro uses, a Marvell
  avastar 88W8797, does not work properly under Ubuntu 12.10 or 13.04.
  On 13.04, it will be reported three times in the network manager and
  any attempt to connect to any network will fail, regardless of the
  settings of the network.  Additionally attempting to connect to any of
  the three listed connections will cause the system to hang on
  shutdown, as well as any attempt to read the state of the network.
