Kismet no workie
The card's an enterasys (relabeled orinoco, hermes chipset).
Networking works fine (I'm posting from this same machine/card) yet when perchance I try to run kismet, quoth the kismet:
root@ttyp0[knoppix]# kismet
Server options: none
Client options: none
Starting server...
Suid priv-dropping disabled. This may not be secure.
No specific sources given to be enabled, all will be enabled.
Enabling channel hopping.
Enabling channel splitting.
NOTICE: Disabling channel hopping, no enabled sources are able to change channel.
Source 0 (ciscosource): Enabling monitor mode for cisco source interface eth0 channel 6...
FATAL: Unable to open cisco control file '/proc/driver/aironet/eth0/Config' 2:No such file or directory
Waiting for server to start before startuing UI...
root@ttyp0[knoppix]#
What gives?

I've had luck with the instructions in the book "Knoppix Hacks" (wardriving with Kismet is hack #44). It's a bit involved -- you need to edit a configuration file and start the program with a number of switches. The book is excellent and is worth the price for the Kismet instructions alone.

I think "buy a book" is the wrong way to answer this question 
Without plagerizing (i.e. word for word) can you summarize what needs to be edited (probably /etc/kismet/kismet.conf) and which switches to try?
Thanks in advance,
