I got Kismet working under Linux 2.4.19 with an Orinoco Gold card using the 
instructions at http://awip.truffula.net/index.php/KismetOrinoco
I skipped step 1 from the instructions (changing the card's firmware).  If 
found that the calling sequence for Kismet (step 7) didn't work reliably so I 
also created a wrapper to run Kismet:

#!/bin/bash
iwpriv eth1 monitor 2 6
sleep 3
kismet
kismet_unmonitor
sleep 3
/etc/init.d/pcmcia restart

(eth1 is the wireless card's interface)

Hope this helps
