Anyone have this configuration working? I am searching the forums and Google but both searches are coming up empty.

Anyone have any ideas? Basically what is happening is I am getting the follwing error when I attempt to launch 'kismet_monitor' as root.

wlanctl-ng: Operation not supported

I am gussing I have to get new orinoco or prism drivers but I can't find anything definitive with this card.

I've emerged the standard linux-wlan-ng stuff (with USE="pcmcia") and it works fine for me...

I got it working. Everything on Windows says the MA401 is a prism2 card so I used that entry in my kismet.conf file.

I forgot to replace the kismet.conf file with me backed up one so I had the Cisco defaults in there and got a different error. So on a hunch I tried switching it to "orinoco" and it works now.

:P
