Bringing up Marvell 88W8300

Hi Andrea and wireless folks!

I'm trying to bring up my WiFi card under Linux. I've found the code
for the mac80211 (mrv8kng).
My card is Asus Wi-Fi-Tv card (integrated tv capturing+WiFi adapter:
01:0f.0 Ethernet controller: Marvell Technology Group Ltd. 88W8335
[Libertas] 802.11b/g Wireless (rev 43).


My current problem is that I can't load the firmware on the chip.
There are two files (Win drivers) on the Asus CDROM:

denis@denis-desktop:~/Downloads$ ls -al CB55N50.sys CB55N51.sys
-rw-r--r-- 1 denis denis 297856 2005-04-16 13:27 CB55N50.sys
-rw-r--r-- 1 denis denis 297856 2005-04-16 13:26 CB55N51.sys

The FW cutter can't find the the main FW:
denis@denis-desktop:~/Downloads$ ./mrv8k_extract_fw CB55N51.sys
Bootloader found at 282088
Firmware not found

I also tried the firmware from the *BSD (malo firmware), but also
without success.

Current problem that after loading the 'main' firmware the
MRV_REG_STATUS register is not
equal to MRV_FW_SIGNATURE.


PS: Looks like that this tree no longer available
git://git.infradead.org/mrv8k.git :/

Thanks in advance.
