Post by: xjqian on March 29, 2006, 02:43:49 am: the latest Kismet 2005-08-R1-2 didn't come with "play" and "sox" and the wav files. I don't know wether cacko includes the following in their package (hope they had).

Code: [Select]
Run the latest Kismet with sound 12) Unzip and untar the old kismet ipk to extract the playback binaries and wav files mkdir temp cp Location/kismet_3.0.1c-20031228_arm.ipk temp cd temp tar zxvf kismet_3.0.1c-20031228_arm.ipk gunzip data.tar.gz tar xvf data.tar cp ./usr/local/bin/play /usr/local/bin cp ./usr/local/bin/sox /usr/local/bin chmod 755 /usr/local/bin/play chmod 755 /usr/local/bin/sox prepare the directory (mkdir ***) /usr/local/share/kismet/wav cp ./usr/local/share/kismet/wav/*.wav /usr/local/share/kismet/wav

sorry for the delay, I was away on holiday. Yes, kismet as part of cacko1.23 feed DOES install the sound files BUT the kismet config file refers to the wrong place.

this is the magic command you have to do so kismet can find them. Start a console, use "su" command to become root and then enter

ln -s /home/QtPalmtop/share/kismet /usr/local/share/kismet

easy!

Post by: speculatrix on April 09, 2006, 05:04:31 pm: p.s. you can always run this command

find / -name "*.wav" -print | more

to find all the wav files on your zaurus. that's how I found out where all the kismet sound files were

Title: Sound In Kismet
Post by: speculatrix on November 15, 2006, 01:16:51 pm: I'm just trying to get kismet running on my "new" c3100 newly flashed to cacko1.23, it's been 8 months since I sold my 860, so I am like a newbie.

I thought I would post what I learned to do.

install kismet and ncurses package:
* ipkg install kismet
* ipkg install ncurses

put kismet conf files in easy to find place
* ln -s /opt/Qtopia/etc/kismet /etc/kismet

fix the location of the sound files
* ln -s /opt/Qtopia/share/kismet /usr/local/share/kismet

turn off gps and sound in the server, turn sound on in client
* vi /etc/kismet/kismet.conf and disable gps and sound
* vi /etc/kismet/kismet_ui.conf and enable sound, change the sound player from /usr/bin/play to /opt/Qtopia/bin/wavplay

now, it nearly runs, but the client doesn't come up. must have missed something, and it leaves the server running. kismet_client isn't executable by user zaurus, but if I do make it so, I get the following problem:
$ kismet_client
NOTICE: Group file did not exist, it will be created.
Looking for startup info from localhost:2501.... found.

Error opening terminal: linux.

I have tried changing TERM to linux, vt100, xterm with no joy. I have tried too as user root. Hmm.

Post by: speculatrix on November 16, 2006, 11:32:07 am: hmmm. very odd, kismet runs fine from qtopia icon, it's just the command line that fails. very odd... but I do remember that the kismet shell wrapper for qtopia is a replacement for the command line script.

Did you export TERMINFO before export TERM
Code: [Select]
export TERMINFO=/usr/share/terminfo export TERM=linux
Title: Sound In Kismet
Post by: speculatrix on November 20, 2006, 07:09:02 pm: aha, that appeared to do the trick... I've now realised that the k.sh script provided for the icon in qtopia is a completely separate thing to the kismet script.

thanks!
