[Bug 299115] New: iwl3945: can not be used as source for kismet
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=299115 Summary: iwl3945: can not be used as source for kismet Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Beta 1 Platform: x86 OS/Version: openSUSE 10.3 Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Network AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: casualprogrammer@yahoo.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: Beta-Customer As ipw3945 has been replaced with iwlwifi ( iwl3945 ) from alpha7, use of kismet ( and probably other network utilities ) is no longer possible. Intel states on it's iwlwifi website at http://intellinuxwireless.org/?p=iwlwifi "NOTE: The iwlwifi driver is a development driver. If you are looking for a fully validated and stable driver, please visit the Intel Customer Support download page." So it should be considered to stick with the stable ipw3945, at least as an option, until iwlwifi can be considered stable and fully functional. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

error. Some digging turns out, building kismet has to be done as root _completely_, while usually ./configure and make would be done as user and only make install as root.
Do you know what part of configure/make is causing trouble and needs to be run as root? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
