If you plan on running your stumbling programs on/in
the linux window, they may not work...
As I remember The drivers require exclusive access to the
hardware, and if you are running this setup in a linux window
under Windows, it won't have direct acces it needs to the
Wi-Fi card. This is the same reason linux sniffing tools such
as Kismet and Netstumbler will also not work on a Guest OS
under VMWare.
