Hi Donald,
most probably not a kernel regression but system/netd issue, as we speak in order to have eth and wifi working we are using the following povilas hack in system/netd
https://github.com/maurossi/netd/commit/cc0f660bef98d7ec7d5bb3c48834a83767c54ea4
if you apply the hack in system/netd project both kernel 4.12 and 4.13rc1 are working Mauro
Thank you! I will apply this. If you don't mind me asking, how did you track down the issue? I would like to learn so that I can contribute in the future.
I'm a bit confused as to why the behavior in android-x86 is so much different than Arch Linux or Debian. With this system on Debian I can boot without "nomodeset" parameter but it seems no matter what kernel or version of android x86 I use--I cannot boot with nomodeset.
Hi, I had barely seen that netlink was returning invalid argument error and that system/netd in nougat is not latest version I tried to build more recent version in AOSP, but It did not solve
Povilas has provided the hack to ignore the error:
I applied the hack and recompiled but the wifi issue remains.
Kernel 4.13-rc1 (and 4.12)
Hi,
Please post on android-x86 forum with dmesg kernel error for atheros and we will see if somenthing similar pops-up in linux distributions

It seems that with the latest versions of this kernel WIFI has stopped working with the Dell Venue 8 Pro.
It connects but regardless of settings says, "No internet Connection"
AFAIK the adapter is: Dell Wireless 1538
It works with android x86 default kernel 4.9 so I assumed that anything 4.9+ would just add additional functionality but it seems that there are some regression issues?
