I have been trying various cards to find something that will work Out Of Box with knoppix (and kismet/airsnort). so far no luck. If anyone knows of any please let me know.
right now i have a SMC2532W-B (prism 2.5), i have tried this on 3 different laptops with the same results.
on boot it is detecting the card but failing:
that DemarcTech isnt the right card, but its basically hardware identicalCode:cardmgr[63]: starting, version is 3.2.2 cardmgr[63]: socket1: DemarcTech Relia-Wave 180mW 802.11b WLAN Card cardmgr[63]: executing: 'modprobe prism2_cs' cardmgr[63]: executing: './wlan-ng start wlan0' cardmgr[63]: + Sample private network setup cardmgr[63]: + /sbin/ifconfig wlan0 up cardmgr[63]: + SIOCSIFFLAGS: No such device cardmgr[63]: + /sbin/pump -i wlan0 > /dev/null cardmgr[63]: + Operation Failed.
also some things that may help:
ifconfig wlan0 =
odd that the MAC is all 0's... PHLAK is giving me the same issues, but atleast reports the right MACCode:wlan0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:00:00:00:00:00 BROADCAST MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packet:0 errors:0 dropper:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:0 errors:0 dropper:0 overruns:0 carrier: collision:0 txqueuelen:100 RX bytes:0 (0.0 b) TX bytes:0 (0.0 b) Interrupt:3 Base address:0x100
cat /proc/interrupts shows prism2_cs on interrupt 3, and nothing else on 3
iwconfig =

lsmod is showing the prism2_cs, ds, and pcmcia_core being loaded, which i am told are the 3 things to check for....
I am really banging my head here. I am a complete n00b when it comes to linux, so if there is something you want to know, just tell me the command I would like to see if loading the orinoco_cs driver would fix things, but i have no idea how!
not sure if this helps but WarBSD 0.2p1 (live cd) allowed this card to work out of box. thing is that is a 17meg iso and doesnt have all the cool stuff
