I want to play around with kismet and airsnort, but my orinoco gold card does not go into monitor mode using iwconfig. There is a bunch of patches available from http://airsnort.shmoo.com/orinocoinfo.html, but I am reluctant to install one because the latest version of patcheable pcmcia-cs is 3.2.1 and I am running pcmcia-cs-3.2.4 gentoo emerge on a gentoo Dell i8k running kernel 2.4.20-gentoo-r7 with all pcmcia options off in .config and pcmcia up and running. (I am connected to the Internet at the moment via my card.)
What should I do to modify my orinoco driver to permit monitor mode? Any guidance (even express directions) would be most appreciated. Bud -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
