.wlan0 = USB RTL8191su
wlan1 = Atheros
Are you using wep or wpa-wpa2?...
To run airodump-ng you need to be in monitor mode, to connect to an AP, you need to be in managed mode..No matter what interface you use. The 2 interfaces are independent from each other.
In your ,txt file, both wlan0 and wlan1 are in maneged mode, so now you can connect to an AP. Use any of the interfaces, just pick one in wicd.
If you want to audit wifi, I would use wlan1, since athk9 is fully supported by aircrack-ng..So just do this:
ifconfig wlan1 down
iwconfig wlan1 monitor mode
ifconfig wlan1 up
airodump-ng wlan1
It should start the airodump and start picking up APs.
Again, what kind of security are you using in AP: wep or wpa-wpa2...Some cards are having troubles with WPA-WPA2 and wicd.
