Acknowledged. I noticed it was broken as soon as RHEL7.4 was released. Red Hat rebased the wireless stack in 7.4 to that from kernel-4.11, and unfortunately the ath5k driver no longer compiles against the RHEL7.4 kernel. Given the age of the driver, I'm unwilling to spend a large amount of time trying to fix it so plan to deprecate the driver from the elrepo repository. If anyone wants to fix it, I'll happily accept patches and build it. Alternatively, it might be time to look at a shiny new wireless adaptor. |
