Greetings;

Can anyone tell me if this pci wireless card is supported, or what its
status is?

From lspci -v:
01:06.0 Ethernet controller: Marvell Technology Group Ltd. 88w8335 [Libertas] 802.11b/g Wireless (rev 03)
Subsystem: Netgear WG311v3 802.11g Wireless PCI Adapter

I have built a 2.6.31-rc5 kernel with the Marvel stuffs all enabled, but
even a modprobe mwl8k, while apparently loading the driver, doesn't create
any wireless devices in /dev.

they don't show up in /dev - tried iwconfig?
