Awesome! Thank you. Still having issues however, when going into airmon-ng the tab that shows "drivers" is only showing "??????". My adapter works fine for a while, allowing me to connect to the internet, but after a little while my terminal will become unresponsive if I issue any commands having to do with the network. airmon-ng, iwconfig, ifconfig..... if I issue any of these commands, nothing happens and I have to restart my system if I want the damage to be un-done. The issue of the un-responsive terminal will only happen after I plug in my adapter and about 5 minutes has gone by.

Any guesses on what is causing this? Is there more information I should include?

Note that it's also backwards compatible with kernels preceeding 4.16 because the function that was breaking compatibility for 4.16+ was the a timer changing name, and the commit that fixed it used boilerplate code. The memcpy bug also got fixed about 4 commits back, which would fix #120 #111 #116 #107 and several other issues, I imagine
