Redhat 8.0 and wireless stuff
Hello,
Wondering if anyone had taken the time to install RH 8 and try to set up Kismet with a Cisco or Lucent card. I'm in the process of downloading and would like to know what I'm getting myself into. Thanks in advance |

Seeing as how it came out today, I'd say you are one of the first. I have no plans to upgrade anytime soon (from 7.3) because the changelog reveals nothing more than a new window manager and package updates (correct me if I'm wrong)....
Tell us how it goes!

has no mention of Kismet.... and it still has kernel 2.4.18 {though probably heavily patched with RH updates and quirks} but there are quite a few software updates that would make a difference... {hopefully making installing kismet a little bit easier} gcc 3.2, GTK2, KDE 3.0.3,PCMCIA 3.1.31 so... I too will be waiting before updating my ehem... customized system... :-) |

i have seen something w/ redhat and orinoco...
for some reason, in 8.0, the drivers do not seem to be modules, like in 7.3, they now seem to be built into the kernel... the only way i found to fix this was to recompile w/ oinoco support as modules, then install the patched drivers.. otherwise, it don't load the right stuff.. then u get no monitor command... and, no kismet / airsnort... someone correct me if i'm wrong.. RAMBO |

Installed redhat 8.0 this morning. My orinoco card worked immediately, connecting to my AP with little effort - but I can't get it into monitor mode to run Kismet.
 EDIT still need to try the shmoo patch.

I installed RH8 on my Dell Inspiron 8100 and it works like a champ. Comes with Ethereal.. I compiled Kismet and installed it but it doesnt seem to work.. it's configured correctly says the driver says 1 or incorrect driver... but yet the wireless drivers are working for my card.. I have a Dell TrueMobile 1150 and what is the shmoo patch?
