I know this isn't Nokia's fault (blame Conexant for refusing to talk to
the Prism54 people) but if the WLAN driver wasn't binary-only this
wouldn't be an issue. Monitor mode is a standard feature of Linux WLAN
drivers and IMHO it should work properly. Hopefully someday the
islsm/FreeMAC/whatever work will be done and the cx3110x driver can be
banished.

Forgive me if I'm ignorant, but do you mean this one:

"License: GNU General Public License (GPL)" doesn't sound too binary,
even though GPL tends to be a bit black-and-white in it's license
compatibility regulation... ;)
