I installed Kismet onto my Soekris box running Pebble using apt_get, and it worked like a charm (until I messed up the drivers for my wireless cards).
Depending on what wireless card and driver you're using, you can also try the latest wireless tools (http://www.hpl.hp.com/personal/Jean_Tourrilhes/Linux/Tools.html) and use the command to list available APs.

Sure, Kismet doesn't need much hardware to run, it can live comfortably on a soekris. Depending on your hardware setup and memory, you can run it on extremely minimal hardware by running the drone (capture engine and tcp server components) on the little box and netpiping the packets to a bigger box for dissection and grouping and all. -m On Wed, Apr 14, 2004 at 01:09:32PM -0500, Fred Weston wrote: > I have a Soekris 4521 (128mb CF) with a Senao 200mw card and an omni antenna on a 75' tower in my backyard that isn't being used right now. I was wondering if it is possible to load something like kismet on the Soekris that would allow me to see what wireless networks it can see. It's running Pebble linux now, but it's not a big deal to change to something else if needed. I tried loading kismet, but pebble doesn't have a compiler and i'm not too sure how to get one. > > Thanks for any help. _______________________________________________ BAWUG's general wireless chat mailing list [unsubscribe] http://lists.bawug.org/mailman/listinfo/wireless
