And what kind of locking issues are you seeing? I mis-spoke, the module I'm talking about is the cx3110x. Too easy to get all the module names mixed together after a while. The problem is that while the module on the dev site works (mostly, I've still seen weird problems coming out of monitor mode, sometimes going in), the module in the firmware (at least, the module in Bora) still has the old code which tends to lock up the wireless after about 30 seconds of switching into monitor mode, as well as having a lot of problems switching in and out of monitor mode. This may in fact be a channel set problem, since most drivers which work briefly and then drop dead are usually exhibiting a channel command issue rather than an rfmon issue (one packet is very much the same as the next in rfmon, and no real reason it ought to care, in general). So, at the moment, the chances of it causing weird to outright broken behavior on a standard nokia tablet are too high for me to be comfortable releasing an official kismet package. While it's possible for me to include the latest cx32110x module, it would also require disabling the users wireless, unloading the modules, loading the new one, running the chroot to initfs to reconfigure the wireless, and then being absolutely sure that the process is reversed on any exit condition, including the user closing the terminal they have kismet running in -- otherwise they get stuck in some weird state requiring a reboot, and that's not good behavior. Thus is my dilemma. -m -- Mike Kershaw/Dragorn <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> GPG Fingerprint: 3546 89DF 3C9D ED80 3381 A661 D7B2 8822 738B BDB1 Quidquid Latine Dictum Sit, Altum Viditur (Anything said in latin sounds profound) pgp6EnxKZ5PNH.pgp Description: PGP signature ___ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers

Has anyone else encountered this issue? Once a pile of issues (launching menus, having to load in unofficial csx1211 kernel modules to keep the wireless from locking up dead on the 800), etc are fixed (which depends on people sending me patches or me having the time to get around to it) then there will be an official kismet release on the kismet site. Until then, it's too quirky to have a supported release. -m -- Mike Kershaw/Dragorn <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> GPG Fingerprint: 3546 89DF 3C9D ED80 3381 A661 D7B2 8822 738B BDB1 Experts in ancient Greek culture say that people back then didn't see their thoughts as belonging to them.

Re: Kismet on the N800/Maemo Platform?
Kismet used to work perfectly on the N800 until I reflashed with the new system release. Now it starts out perfectly, sees a screenful of networks and then stops when the screen fills up, even though the app continues to run and the timer continues to increment.

Kismet on the N800/Maemo Platform?
All, has anyone been working on getting the Kismet 802.11 layer2 wireless network detector, sniffer, and intrusion detection system running on the Maemo platform? For those not already aware of Kismet here is the url to the www page for the product: http://www.kismetwireless.net/documentation.shtml Earlier this year, at the EMC(2)/RSA Security conference, a small company, Immunity Inc., demoed a pen testing tool running on the Nokia 770/N800, called the Silica. Here is the url to the www page for that product: http://www.immunityinc.com/products-silica.shtml some ZDnet "press" coverage: http://content.zdnet.com/2346-12691_22-53766-1.html and, some eweek coverage: http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,1759,2003853,00.asp It is not at all clear from the information at Immunity's www site whether or not they utilize Kismet on the Nokia platform to perform the 802.11 layer 2 aspects of what this product does. -- Best Regards, John Holmblad Acadia Secure Networks ___ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers
