Thank you for updating the kismet port. I've tested your update using wi(4), ath(4) and ral(4) based cards on i386 and amd64. While testing i had a gps receiver plugged in and gpsd running. Both kismet and gpsd worked together and drawing maps with gpsmap was also ok. While testing I got the best results using the wi(4) card - no problems for me. With ath(4) only detecting networks worked; i was not able to capture data packets. The ral(4) card didn't work in monitor mode - i had to disable the monitor mode by hand using ifconfig _after_ starting kismet. But even then only discovering networks worked for me. Because we do not have apm(4) support on all platforms, i would disable the "apm" option for displaying battery status - patch at the end of this message.
