Orinoco patch for AirSnort

After spending about an hour trying to get my Orinoco card (Classic) to go into monitor mode so I could use AirSnort, I went here and realized I probably would have to patch the Orinoco driver to allow monitor mode. So my first question is, am I correct in making this assumption?

However, my Orinoco card works just fine in Windows (XP) and in various other Linux (ASC Kanotix) functions. I don't want to patch the drivers to allow AirSnort to work if I'll lose other functionality of the card.

So the second question is will patching the orinoco driver to allow monitor mode affect the other functions of the card?

Install the latest one.

Don't ever use the .15 orinoco drivers, they blow.

What is the easiest way to tell what the current driver is?

Basicly, the 0.13e drivers were stable for monitor mode, and worked good, however, they would not install on the 2.6 kernel.

This guy updated the 0.13e drivers to install on the 2.6 kernel, and he updated the drivers and extensions.

The 0.15RC2 Or CVS orinoco drivers are the latest, but they are very unstable in monitor mode, and do not work on a lot of firmware versions.

0.13e rev.8 is the latest version of his modified drivers.

Alright, I'm sold. Now I need to figure out HOW. I really like Linux but I hate having to start at the beginning...such a noob (no comments, Dutch).

cd /usr/local
bunzip2 /path/to/package/orinoco-0.13e-SN-8.tar.bz2
tar -xvf /path/to/package/orinoco-0.13e-SN-8.tar
cd orinoco-0.13e-SN-8
make
su root
make install

If all went well you got no error messages and your new drivers will have been installed into the current directory. So copy them into the modules tree with:

cp *.ko /lib/modules/kernel-version/kernel/drivers/net/wireless

Don't wear out the keyboard.
Use tar -jxvf to unpack bzipped tarballs. Use tar -zxvf to unpack gzipped tarballs.

If you copy and paste both lines into the command prompt at once, it doesn't matter then.

However, thanks for the advice on the correct way unpack tarballs.

Sorry to be a PITA guys. I'm in the same boat with thepres98, but I'm running Knoppix 3.8.1 installed on the HD. I have some *nix experience but not a lot. When I issue the make command I get an error "no rule to make target modules. Stop" This driver patch is the only thing stopping me. I've found several generic posts with this error but nothing that helps me. Any suggestions? I'm stuck.

PS, I was going to do the orinoco-2.6.11-rfmon-dragorn-1.diff patch from http://www.kismetwireless.net/download.shtml until I read this thread.

AFAiR Knoppix 3.8.1 already contains the patched 0.13e ORiNOCO drivers.

What does the dmesg output say when you insert the ORiNOCO card ? (dmesg|tail -n 30)

Here it is

orinoco 0.15rc2STA (David Gibson <hermes@gibson.dropbear.id.au>, Pavel Roskin <proski@gnu.org>, et al)
orinoco_cs 0.15rc2STA (David Gibson <hermes@gibson.dropbear.id.au>, Pavel Roskin <proski@gnu.org>, et al)
eth0: Hardware identity 0001:0004:0005:0000
eth0: Station identity 001f:0001:0008:0048
eth0: Firmware determined as Lucent/Agere 8.72
eth0: Ad-hoc demo mode supported
eth0: IEEE standard IBSS ad-hoc mode supported
eth0: WEP supported, 104-bit key
eth0: MAC address 00:02:2D:C0:96:6A

eth0: ready
eth0: index 0x01: Vcc 5.0, irq 3, io 0x0140-0x017f
eth0: no IPv6 routers present



PS when executing kismet, it fails after trying to execute monitor mode with "Fatal: Could not find 'monitor' private ioctl or use the newer style 'mode monitor' command. This typically means that the drivers have not been patched or the correct drivers are being loaded."

Dutch, I booted from the CD and dmesg still shows

orinoco 0.15rc2STA (David Gibson <hermes@gibson.dropbear.id.au>, Pavel Roskin <proski@gnu.org>, et al)
orinoco_cs 0.15rc2STA (David Gibson <hermes@gibson.dropbear.id.au>, Pavel Roskin <proski@gnu.org>, et al)
eth0: Hardware identity 0001:0004:0005:0000
eth0: Station identity 001f:0001:0008:0048
eth0: Firmware determined as Lucent/Agere 8.72
eth0: Ad-hoc demo mode supported
eth0: IEEE standard IBSS ad-hoc mode supported
eth0: WEP supported, 104-bit key
eth0: MAC address 00:02:2D:C0:96:6A
eth0: Station name "HERMES I"
eth0: ready
eth0: index 0x01: Vcc 5.0, irq 3, io 0x0140-0x017f
eth0: no IPv6 routers present

It would appear that new new 0.15 rc2 driver is bundled in the latest ISO. I can't get into monitor mode with this driver.
