LinuxQuestions.org - kismet issuses???

hello im running slackware 10 and i patched the orinoco drivers and compiled the latest kismet from source anyway when i start kismet i get this:

WARNING: Sometimes cards don't always come out of monitor mode

        cleanly.  If your card is not fully working, you may need to

        restart or reconfigure it for normal operation.

Kismet exiting.

also my kismet.conf file looks like this

Code:

# Kismet config file

# Most of the "static" configs have been moved to here -- the command line

# config was getting way too crowded and cryptic.  We want functionality,

# not continually reading --help!



# Version of Kismet config

version=2004.03.devel.a



# Name of server (Purely for organiational purposes)

servername=Kismet



# User to setid to (should be your normal user)

suiduser=thantos



# Sources are defined as:

# source=cardtype,interface,name[,initialchannel]

# Card types and required drivers are listed in the README.

# The initial channel is optional, if hopping is not enabled it can be used

# to set the channel the interface listens on.

source=orinoco,eth0,orinoco

# Other common source configs:

# source=prism2,wlan0,prism2source

# source=prism2_avs,wlan0,newprism2source

# source=orinoco,eth0,orinocosource

# An example source line with an initial channel:

# source=orinoco,eth0,silver,11



# Comma-separated list of sources to enable.  This is only needed if you defined

# multiple sources and only want to enable some of them.  By default, all defined

# sources are enabled.

# For example:

# enablesources=prismsource,cisco

# Users outside the US might want to use this list:

# defaultchannels=IEEE80211b:1,7,13,2,8,3,14,9,4,10,5,11,6,12

defaultchannels=IEEE80211b:1,6,11,2,7,3,8,4,9,5,10



# 802.11g uses the same channels as 802.11b...

defaultchannels=IEEE80211g:1,6,11,2,7,3,8,4,9,5,10



# 802.11a channels are non-overlapping so sequential is fine.  You may want to

# adjust the list depending on the channels your card actually supports.

# defaultchannels=IEEE80211a:36,40,44,48,52,56,60,64,100,104,108,112,116,120,124,128,132,136,140,149,153,157,161,184,188,192,196,200,204,208,212,216

defaultchannels=IEEE80211a:36,40,44,48,52,56,60,64



# Combo cards like Atheros use both 'a' and 'b/g' channels.  Of course, you

# can also explicitly override a given source.  You can use the script

# extras/listchan.pl to extract all the channels your card supports.

defaultchannels=IEEE80211ab:1,6,11,2,7,3,8,4,9,5,10,36,40,44,48,52,56,60,64



# Fine-tuning channel hopping control:

# The sourcechannels option can be used to set the channel hopping for

# specific interfaces, and to control what interfaces share a list of

# channels for split hopping.  This can also be used to easily lock

# one card on a single channel while hopping with other cards.

# Any card without a sourcechannel definition will use the standard hopping

# list.

# sourcechannels=sourcename[,sourcename]:ch1,ch2,ch3,...chN



# ie, for us channels on the source 'prism2source' (same as normal channel

# hopping behavior):

# sourcechannels=prism2source:1,6,11,2,7,3,8,4,9,5,10



# Given two capture sources, "prism2a" and "prism2b", we want prism2a to stay

# on channel 6 and prism2b to hop normally.  By not setting a sourcechannels

# line for prism2b, it will use the standard hopping.

# sourcechannels=prism2a:6



# To assign the same custom hop channel to multiple sources, or to split the

# same custom hop channel over two sources (if splitchannels is true), list

# them all on the same sourcechannels line:

# sourcechannels=prism2a,prism2b,prism2c:1,6,11



# Port to serve GUI data

tcpport=2501

# People allowed to connect, comma seperated IP addresses or network/mask

# blocks.  Netmasks can be expressed as dotted quad (/255.255.255.0) or as

# numbers (/24)

allowedhosts=127.0.0.1

# Maximum number of concurrent GUI's

# Do we have a GPS?

gps=false

# Host:port that GPSD is running on.  This can be localhost OR remote!

gpshost=localhost:2947

# Do we lock the mode?  This overrides coordinates of lock "0", which will

# generate some bad information until you get a GPS lock, but it will

# fix problems with GPS units with broken NMEA that report lock 0

gpsmodelock=false



# Packet filtering options:

# filter_tracker - Packets filtered from the tracker are not processed or

#                  recorded in any way.

# filter_dump    - Packets filtered at the dump level are tracked, displayed,

#                  and written to the csv/xml/network/etc files, but not

#                  recorded in the packet dump

# filter_export  - Controls what packets influence the exported CSV, network,

#                  xml, gps, etc files.

# All filtering options take arguments containing the type of address and

# addresses to be filtered.  Valid address types are 'ANY', 'BSSID',

# 'SOURCE', and 'DEST'.  Filtering can be inverted by the use of '!' before

# the address.  For example,

# filter_tracker=ANY(!00:00:DE:AD:BE:EF)

# has the same effect as the previous mac_filter config file option.

# filter_tracker=...

# filter_dump=...

# filter_export=...



# Alerts to be reported and the throttling rates.

# alert=name,throttle/unit,burst

# The throttle/unit describes the number of alerts of this type that are

# sent per time unit.  Valid time units are second, minute, hour, and day.

# Burst describes the number of alerts sent before throttling takes place.

# For example:

# alert=FOO,10/min,5

# Would allow 5 alerts through before throttling is enabled, and will then

# limit the number of alerts to 10 per minute.

# A throttle rate of 0 disables throttling of the alert.

# See the README for a list of alert types.

alert=NETSTUMBLER,5/min,2

alert=WELLENREITER,5/min,2

alert=LUCENTTEST,5/min,2

alert=DEAUTHFLOOD,5/min,4

alert=PROBENOJOIN,5/min,2

alert=DISASSOCTRAFFIC,5/min,2

alert=NULLPROBERESP,5/min,5

# %n is replaced by the logging instance name

# %d is replaced by the current date as Mon-DD-YYYY

# %t is replaced by the starting log time

# %i is replaced by the increment log in the case of multiple logs

# %l is replaced by the log type (dump, status, crypt, etc)

# %h is replaced by the home directory

# ie, "netlogs/%n-%d-%i.dump" called with a logging name of "Pok" could expand

# to something like "netlogs/Pok-Dec-20-01-1.dump" for the first instance and

# "netlogs/Pok-Dec-20-01-2.%l" for the second logfile generated.

# %h/netlots/%n-%d-%i.dump could expand to

# /home/foo/netlogs/Pok-Dec-20-01-2.dump

#

# Other possibilities:  Sorting by directory

# logtemplate=%l/%n-%d-%i

# Would expand to, for example,

# dump/Pok-Dec-20-01-1

# crypt/Pok-Dec-20-01-1

# and so on.  The "dump", "crypt", etc, dirs must exist before kismet is run

# in this case.

# Where do we store the pid file of the server?

# Where state info, etc, is stored.  You shouldnt ever need to change this.
