You need this line as well.

Make sure you you edit the correct kismet.conf file located at:
/usr/local/etc/kismet.conf
Process of setting up kismet
In Backtrack 3 I've tried setting up, in the kismet config file,
and when I ran kismet I got "FATAL: GetIFFlags: interface ath0: No such device" Then I notice this:Code:source=ath5k_ag, ath0, atheros
The things two feet from the access point. How can I get this working? The only thing I'm thinking is the wi-fi button isn't set up right? How would I do that if thats the case? It's just a regular push button like a key on an Acer Aspire 5520-5912. ............help? thanksCode:iwlist ath0 scan ath0 No scan results

ifconfig ath0 up makes your interface up
ifconfig ath0 down makes your interface down
Aren't you using madwifi drivers? Than you have to use "madwifi_ag".
Do I HAVE to use madwifi drivers? I tried to see if it would work with the drivers that are automatically loaded when BT3 boots up.
So then I triedCode:bt ~ # ifconfig ath0 up bt ~ # iwconfig lo no wireless extensions. eth0 no wireless extensions. wifi0 no wireless extensions. ath0 IEEE 802.11g ESSID:"" Nickname:"" Mode:Managed Frequency:2.457 GHz Access Point: Not-Associated Bit Rate:0 kb/s Tx-Power:16 dBm Sensitivity=1/1 Retry:off RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off Encryption key:off Power Management:off Link Quality=0/70 Signal level=-256 dBm Noise level=-256 dBm Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0 Tx excessive retries:0 Invalid misc:0 Missed beacon:0 bt ~ # iwlist ath0 scan ath0 No scan results
Don't know what thats all about but anyways thats as far as I went with that. I just tried this:Code:bt Desktop # tar xvzf mad* madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/ madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/THANKS madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/scripts/ madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/scripts/madwifi-unload madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/scripts/if_ath_hal_generator.pl ... madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/contrib/ madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/contrib/madwifi.spec.in madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/contrib/madwifi.spec madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/Makefile madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/ madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/ah_devid.h madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/COPYRIGHT madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/ madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/ap30.hal.o.uu madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/i386-elf.opt_ah.h madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/ap30.inc madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/i386-elf.inc madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/mips-le-elf.opt_ah.h madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/ap51.opt_ah.h madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/sparc-be-elf.hal.o.uu madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/xscale-be-elf.hal.o.uu madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/xscale-le-elf.hal.o.uu madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/alpha-elf.hal.o.uu madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/wackelf.c madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/ap43.opt_ah.h madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/sparc64-be-elf.opt_ah.h madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/armv4-be-elf.inc madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/ap30.opt_ah.h madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/alpha-elf.inc madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/ap61.inc madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/mipsisa32-be-elf.hal.o.uu madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/powerpc-be-elf.inc madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/mipsisa32-be-elf.opt_ah.h madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/sparc64-be-elf.inc madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/mips1-be-elf.hal.o.uu madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/sh4-le-elf.hal.o.uu madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/arm9-le-thumb-elf.opt_ah.h madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/mips1-le-elf.inc madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/powerpc-be-eabi.opt_ah.h madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/powerpc-be-eabi.inc madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/mips-be-elf.hal.o.uu madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/powerpc-be-elf.opt_ah.h madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/powerpc-be-eabi.hal.o.uu madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/mips1-be-elf.opt_ah.h madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/mips1-le-elf.hal.o.uu madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/sh4-le-elf.opt_ah.h madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/powerpc-le-eabi.inc madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/xscale-le-elf.inc madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/armv4-le-elf.hal.o.uu madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/powerpc-le-eabi.hal.o.uu madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/x86_64-elf.hal.o.uu madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/mipsisa32-le-elf.hal.o.uu madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/sh4-le-elf.inc madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/arm9-le-thumb-elf.inc madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/powerpc-be-elf.hal.o.uu madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/mips1-be-elf.inc madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/alpha-elf.opt_ah.h madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/arm9-le-thumb-elf.hal.o.uu madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/mips-be-elf.inc madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/mips-le-elf.hal.o.uu madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/ap43.inc madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/mips-be-elf.opt_ah.h madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/ap51.hal.o.uu madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/mipsisa32-le-elf.opt_ah.h madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/ap61.opt_ah.h madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/armv4-le-elf.inc madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/armv4-be-elf.hal.o.uu madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/i386-elf.hal.o.uu madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/armv4-le-elf.opt_ah.h madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/mips1-le-elf.opt_ah.h madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/x86_64-elf.inc madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/mipsisa32-be-elf.inc madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/ap51.inc madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/sparc-be-elf.inc madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/armv4-be-elf.opt_ah.h madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/mips-le-elf.inc madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/xscale-be-elf.opt_ah.h madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/mipsisa32-le-elf.inc madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/sparc-be-elf.opt_ah.h madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/powerpc-le-eabi.opt_ah.h madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/xscale-be-elf.inc madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/ap61.hal.o.uu madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/x86_64-elf.opt_ah.h madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/ap43.hal.o.uu madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/sparc64-be-elf.hal.o.uu madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/public/xscale-le-elf.opt_ah.h madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/ah_soc.h madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/README madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/version.h madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/ah.h madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/hal/ah_desc.h madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/release.h bt Desktop # cd mad* bt madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007 # make /bin/sh: line 0: cd: /lib/modules/2.6.21.5/build: No such file or directory Makefile.inc:66: *** /lib/modules/2.6.21.5/build is missing, please set KERNELPATH.

Anyone? Please?
OK I thought it might have had something to do with the fact I have to use noapic and acpi=off in text mode to boot up then I can startx but if I don't use them it doesnt boot up at all. Anyways heres some more output. It's the last part of dmesg. If anyone can help it would be greatly appreciated!

Does this not have a solution? If anyone has a comment please post. If you need more info let me know. Heres some more info I found while playing around that i found interesting that might help
Does this mean something might be conflicting? Please help me figure this out.Code:bt ~ # airdriver-ng detect Found "Madwifi[-ng]" device: (ath_pci) 05:00.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications, Inc.
