#2144: ath0: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Reporter: xxzpxx | Type: defect Status: new | Priority: minor Component: madwifi: other | Version: Keywords: | Patch_attached: 0 Pending: 0 | ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- I am a TOTAL newbie to linux! I didn't know how to open symantec yesterday. I have searched for my problem in madwifi.org and found just one revelant that was resulted invalid. So...I downloaded UBUNTU so i can run aircrack or kismet...when i installed aircrack, got to the last line to start it i got this
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo airodump-ng rausb0 Interface rausb0: ioctl(SIOCGIFINDEX) failed: No such device [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo airodump-ng wifi0 Interface wifi0: ioctl(SIOCGIFINDEX) failed: No such device [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo airodump-ng wlan0 ioctl(SIOCSIFFLAGS) failed: No such file or directory So i did some research and found out that it is probably due to a unpached driver (whatever that means)...i found that madwifi is the "patch to my driver"... I search how to patch driver and follow these directions: madwifi.org/wiki/UserDocs/FirstTimeHowTo...When i get to the part where i have to turn madwifi devices down i get: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo ifconfig ath0 down ath0: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo ifconfig wifi0 down wifi0: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device -- Ticket URL: <http://madwifi.org/ticket/2144> madwifi.org <http://madwifi.org/> Multiband Atheros Driver for Wireless Fidelity ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Madwifi-tickets mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/madwifi-tickets
