Suse 9.1, Kismet, and Prism2
I've been using Suse 9.1 on both wired and wireless connections since it was released, and the only problem I have is that I can't get Kismet to work. I need some help from someone with more expertise that I can muster.
I am using a 802.11b Linksys card. YaST loads the orinoco driver for that card. The card is on wlan0.
When running the as-installed kismet configuration of orinoco,etho,orinocosource I get a message of "no capture sources enabled". I guess that's not surprising, the card is on wlan0. However, kismet also doesn't run when I change the config to orinocosource,wlan0,orinocosource.
Because I have a prism2 based card, I configured Kismet for prism2, wlan0, prism2source. The error I get when firing up kismet is "unknown capture source".
Additionally, when I tail -f /ver/log/messages and unplug the Linksys card, I see the following:
linux_kernel: prism2_cd.o: 0.2.1-pre20 Unloaded
Linux_kernel: p80211.o 0.2.1-pre20 Unloaded
And upon reinserting the card:
linux kernel: Prism2 Card SN: <serial number>
linux kernel: dot11req_reset: the macaddress and setdefaultmib arguments are currently unsupported
Obviously, I'm not understanding something. What do I need to do to get Kismet working on Suse 9.1 with a Prism2 card?
