Hi,
Please try this installation procedure for your Marvell Technology Group Ltd. 88w8335 [Libertas] 802.11b/g Wireless [11ab:1faa] (rev 03) card:
Step 1: Open Terminal from "Applications-
Terminal"
Step 2: Copy-paste each line below to the Terminal then hit <enter> after each line)
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install ndisgtk ndiswrapper-common ndiswrapper-
Step 3: Download the Windows driver file Marvell_
http://
You will first need to register and log into ubuntuforums with your own username before you can download the file. But it should be worth the effort.
Step 4: Open a Terminal and enter the following command to start ndisgtk:
gksudo ndisgtk
Click on "install new driver". Click on "None", next to "Location". Navigate to the location where you extracted the contents of the downloaded file Marvell_
Select this driver file mrv8335.inf to install it.
Step 5: Copy-paste the following command into the Terminal:
gksudo gedit /etc/modules
# Now add the module ndiswrapper to the list of modules to be automatically loaded at boot by adding
ndiswrapper
# to the end of the /etc/modules file. (Gedit editor automatically opens)
Step 6: Reboot your pc and retest wireless
Step 7; If wireless still does not work after rebooting, or if authentication does not work, try disabling security on the router and retry connecting via wireless.
Hope this helps,
Regards,
Mark

Dear Bounces,
Below I list the output from step1 & 2, which looks a bit suspect at the end. I have joined the forum, downloaded the file and opened it. When I do step 4 nothing happens. Any help would be appreciated.

Try this command instead (as part of step 2):
sudo apt-get install ndisgtk
Then proceed with the next steps (step 3, step 4, etc....)
