Hi, I just installed Debian/GNU Linux on my iBook2 and most of the configuration is done. I do, however, have problems getting the program Airsnort to work and believe this is due to either devfs or my kernel (2.4.21-pre4) configuration.
I have no problem using my airport card for normal networking, but can't (according to Airsnort) put in in promiscous mode. This is my first experience with devfs so perhaps my problems related to that? (I've tried both as root and using "sudo airsnort") I do see a "monitor-line" when typing "iwpriv" which according to <URL: http://airsnort.shmoo.com/orinocoinfo.html> is a sign of working drivers. I have also compiled in support for netlink as suggested by <URL: http://www.be-secure.com/wwwboard/messages/21.html>. I've tried to find the information myself, but didn't get any hits from either the list archives or via google so I guess/hope it's something obvious... ;-) -- boran
