Unfortunately, the .15 Orinoco driver included with FC5 (kernel 2.6.17-1.2145_FC5) does not appear to have "monitor" mode built into it afterall. I've got a Lucent 802.11b IEEE/WaveLAN Gold card (ie. a rebranded Orinoco card) running firmware v6.16, but "iwpriv" doesn't show a monitor mode for it (Kismet also complains that no 'monitor' mode is available).

I can't seem to get any of the drivers at http://www.projectiwear.org/~plasmahh/orinoco.html, to compile on my FC5 system either (tried R12 and R13).

Any ideas on how to get this working?
