Well those drivers are for a really old version of the kernel. We'll have to see if there are in-tree drivers in the current kernels because I seriously doubt those would work.

So is that mean that there will be the new kernel in solus with more drivers support?

https://dev.solus-project.com/T4374 I found this topic and there said in new kernel missing drivers were fixed, is the version of kernel in solus 3 4.12.9? Or I should download it mannualy and install it after installing Solus?

4.12.9 :-o

Are you sure you aren't using 4.15? As for T4374: Enable mwifiex_usb driver for USB Marvell wireless chipsets it is enabled in linux-current still, yes.

Edit: of course you aren't. But you probably were then. Whoops. Is it fixed now?
