--- Comment #9 from Juan Ram=C3=B3n Molina Menor <info@juanmolina.eu> ---
I re-activate the bug as I have tried installing the NIC on a CURRENT compu=
ter
and it does not work:

malo0: <Marvell Libertas 88W8335 802.11g Wireless Adapter> mem
0xe0510000-0xe051ffff,0xe0500000-0xe050ffff irq 16 at device 1.0 on pci4
malo0: could not read microcode malo8335-h!
malo0: failed to load bootrom loader.
malo0: unable to setup firmware
device_attach: malo0 attach returned 5

The firmware port is installed with the same sources used to build the syst=
em
and the malofw.ko is in /boot/modules. Trying to load it spits an error:

# kldload malofw
KLD malofw.ko: depends on kernel - not available or version mismatch
linker_load_file: Unsupported file type

I guess there is something in CURRENT that prevents this old firmware to lo=
ad.
Any clues?

Thanks is advance for your attention!
