Here are my thoughts... I'm running Knoppix 3.1 (the bootable all in one Linix Boot CD). I'm thinking that perhaps Kismet at its launch is trying to write to some? directory that it can't because of the CD? I'll keep digging around on this end and see what I can discover...
Another thought... in the Kismet.conf file there is a line that reads:
# User to setid to (should be your normal user)
suiduser=knoppix

I put the "knoppix" in there... how can I tell (in Linux) what my "normal user" is or should be? and would this possibly cause the above problem?
I'm always open to more suggestions.
Thanks again for all your help!!!
