Important compatibility notes

• Any Linux distribution run under Windows subsystem is NOT supported.
• In airgeddon<=8.10, only airmon compatible wireless cards are supported. If your card is unable to change its mode by performing an airmon command out of airgeddon, it won't work. From airgeddon>=8.11 any card can be used if the monitor mode is supported.
• In order to work with Wayland graphic system (instead on using X window system), you must add permissions to root user in this way: ~$ xhost si:localuser:root. Doing that, root user (or using airgeddon as sudo) is able to detect the screen resolution.
• For some Linux distributions like Ubuntu, it is highly recommended to modify grub in order to let the system to name wireless interface cards using classic name style (wlan0, wlan1, etc). If you see your wireless card named as wlx00c0ca9208dc or similar, you should modify your /etc/default/grub file in order to add this net.ifnames=0 biosdevname=0 to your GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX line. For example: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="net.ifnames=0 biosdevname=0" or GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="find_preseed=/preseed.cfg auto noprompt priority=critical locale=en_US net.ifnames=0 biosdevname=0". Just add net.ifnames=0 biosdevname=0 to your existing options. After modifying the file execute grub-update and then reboot. After that, your wireless interface cards will be named again as always. If this change is not done, maybe you could experiment uncontrolled errors.
