Installing 5.1.5 with 4.12

[werdjockey]

Hello, I am not a programmer and really appreciate your work to allow for injection. I have updated my kernel to 4.12, uname -r 4.12.0-041200-generic

Once again thank you very much for your work!

Hi there! Kernel v4.12 is not supported, but take a look here

[werdjockey]

Thank you very much for your response. I have checked out gordboys repo and it compiles and installs fine, but it freezes my computer if I issue the 'iwconfig wlan0 mode monitor'. So I am currently stuck between being able to use 4.12 with no injection or 4.9 with injection. Any advice is welcomed.

[kimocoder]

well, monitoring & injection support is not added yet, because @gordboy and @MilhouseVH did this work the past days. But just watch for changes the next days, or you may clone the repo for v5.1.5 and add the v4.12 patch found in v5.2.9 yourself (easy work ;) no problem sir

[werdjockey]

haha thank you! Yes, I would love to learn how to patch it! I tried just substituting out the ioctl_cfg80211.c file with the gordboy one, but that was to no avail... I like to try to learn rather than have things done for me, so even though I prefer that you do it so I know it's done right, I would also like to know the steps so that I can help other people in the future...Thank you again for being so cool about this!
