    How to patch the installed wireless drivers??

    Hi all

    Does anyone know how could one patch the already installed stock drivers? Is there a way to do this? I know how to patch them prior to compiling them, but I'd like to know if the installed drivers can be patched? Can this be done?

    You mean without having the source code, so patching the ko files?

    While the command patch can handle binaries as well, you need a "good" file and make a diff of the binary and apply it with patch. Not sure if that is what you want to do.. Never tried it to be honest...
