I've been running Watapon for quite some time, which supports my Symbol Spectrum24 LA-4137 Prism2-i-beleive wifi card. Unfortunately I have never been able to run kismet because of driver issues which i never got around of, but that's irrelevant.
I'm now testing the RC1 of OpenZaurus 3.5.4.2 with Opie GUI. When inserted, i do get a popup about the activation of the above mentionned card, but when i view the "network" config applet, or when I run ifconfig, I do not have anything interesting listed there.
Is it something that is not yet operational in the 2.6 kernel in 3.5.4.2 for poodle?
Is it a module/package I should install? If i knew which, I could copy it to a CF/SD card from which i'd install it after flashing.
Is it something that is simply above me? Perhaps some tampering in a shell would do it?
Thanks to anyone's input on this. And congrats to everyone involved on pushing the 2.6 kernel for the Poodle. I really love the form factor of this unit and was kinda sad to be "left behind" until now.

3.5.4.2-rc1 has bug when it comes to spectrum_cs cards - we resolved it already so it will be fixed in 3.5.4.2-rc2

Great!
Do you know if it will be possible to use the hostap drivers in order to have kismet working with it?

Spectrum24 LA-4137 is not supported by hostap and will not be. Does it work with kismet? Dont know.
