Socket CF monitor mode Options

[donk0yote]

was there a previous version of pdaxrom, ( i currently use rc5), that worked with kismet and the socket cf card?
could i take the working drivers from a cacko rom and copy them into the pdaxrom? or is there a kernel difference?
( like just copy symbol.o,orinoco.o,hermes.o files)
i see in the builders resource the kernel patches but where could i find the kernel source? or is it a plain vanilla 2.4.18 kernel with the patches applied?
if i had to go that far i'd have a ton more questions
