I need a little help with my Knoppix set up. I'm running v3.2 on a Dell Inspiron 3500 and an Orinoco Gold 802.11b card. There is no onboard NIC the wifi card is the only network card.

I keep reading how this card should work perfect with Knoppix, but I'm having some problems. When I type "iwpriv etho" to try and put the card in monitor mode I get the message "eth0 no private ioctls". Does anyone know what this means? Is there anything special I need to do to configure the card? I've done some searching and none of the solutions I found worked. Any help would be appreciated.

I would eventually like to get Kismet working too.
