Package: kismet Version: 2008-05-R1-4+b2 Severity: normal
I use kismet with a Broadcom card, supported by the in-kernel b43 driver. My source line: source=b43,mon0,AirForceOne [mon0 is an additional virtual interface, aside from my regular wlan0, created by the command '/usr/bin/iw phy phy0 interface add mon0 type monitor'] When I run kismet, the initial messages include: NOTICE: Disabling channel hopping, no enabled sources are able to change channel. Source 0 (AirForceOne): Enabling monitor mode for b43 source interface mon0 channel 6... Source 0 (AirForceOne): Opening b43 source interface mon0... But the interface certainly is able to change channel, and when kismet actually runs, channel hopping is working correctly. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.30-2-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages kismet depends on: ii libc6 2.9-27 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libexpat1 2.0.1-4 XML parsing C library - runtime li ii libgcc1 1:4.4.1-6 GCC support library ii libgmp3c2 2:4.3.1+dfsg-3 Multiprecision arithmetic library ii libgomp1 4.4.1-6 GCC OpenMP (GOMP) support library ii libmagickcore2 7:6.5.5.3-1 low-level image manipulation libra ii libncurses5 5.7+20090803-2 shared libraries for terminal hand ii libpcap0.8 1.0.0-4 system interface for user-level pa ii libstdc++6 4.4.1-6 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii wireless-tools 29-2 Tools for manipulating Linux Wirel ii wireshark-common 1.2.2-2 network traffic analyzer - common ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.3.dfsg-15 compression library - runtime kismet recommends no packages.
