Hi,

I have a FSG-3 that includes a Marvell 88w8385 card. I wonder if there
is support for it in recent kernels. According to
http://marc.info/?l=linux-wireless&m=123178916308198&w=2 (search for
8385) there seems to be support but I don't want to start messing around
with kernels and stuff without being sure.
That driver is for SDIO hardware.  It looks like your FSG-3 has
mini-PCI?  Either way, we don't have a driver merged yet that would
cover your hardware.

Looks like it's a CB35, which is actually an 88w8335 MiniPCI card.
Would be supported by the mwl8k driver ideally.  I've started on trying
to add support to mwl8k for the 8335 parts, but we'll need to split the
driver so that we can create IO hooks for the different parts.  It'll be
a bit, but we'll get there.

Very interested in the progress of 8335 support at some point. My Netgear wg311v3 is sitting on my desk... waiting for some Linux bits to get it running!

I can assist in testing whenever bits become available ( officially or unofficially, hint, hint! :-P )

Thanks for the hard work, and keep them bits a comin'
