The interface I seem to have is an 88E8001 and a 88E8002 and they both
work fine with the sk98lin module from the latest kernel....
you might need an updated driver, I am back at work on Friday, will poke
and see if I can dig up something for you.
also, try not to top post - it really makes it hard to track the
conversation and in most cases, you'll find people ignore such top
posted messages on a mailing list.

Hi Karanbir,
have you had any chance to build a new module yet? It seems that the
Marvell PCIe-Interfaces are not supported by the module bundled with OF.
I've checked some sites that recommend an upgrade to the newest version
while others say the new version has been wrecked by the developers...
Tnx for your help,
Frank
