I have a Dell 1150 Truemoblie wifi card (ie Orinoco Gold). I can't seem to (ever) get monitor mode to work in airsnort! Oh yeah and Kismet doesn't work either!

When I run knoppix26 to connect to my network I take these steps.
1. Run netcardconfig, select eth0, and dhcp broadcast.
2. Launch wavelan and close netcardconfig (before it fails).
3. I enter my sid and my wep key
4. pump -i eth0 and I'm good.

here is my iwpriv and lsmod it looks like orinoco.cs is loaded (I assume it is the patched version), but as you can see iwpriv does not show monitor:
Code:
knoppix@ttyp0[knoppix]$ iwpriv eth0
eth0      Available private ioctl :
          force_reset      (8BE0) : set   0       & get   0

          set_port3        (8BE2) : set   1 int   & get   0
          get_port3        (8BE3) : set   0       & get   1 int
          set_preamble     (8BE4) : set   1 int   & get   0
          get_preamble     (8BE5) : set   0       & get   1 int
          set_ibssport     (8BE6) : set   1 int   & get   0
          get_ibssport     (8BE7) : set   0       & get   1 int
          dump_recs        (8BFF) : set   0       & get   0
Code:

I know a LOT of people use Orinoco Cards so there must be a way or I must be doing something wrong, but I haven't really seen any complaints.

Any help would be great!

Thanks
