Fwd: Orinoco classic gold and kismet.conf

[Muzaffar Ariff]

Some additional info on my problem, I've manage to capture the output
when I start kismet.

.... removed the top half of the output
Listening on port 2501.

Now its says its exiting kismet but the gui still starts up with no
activity at all. I see that I might have a problem to set my wi on
channel 52 but looking at kismet.conf I can't seem to find anything
wrong with it.

My kismet.conf (only the channel part):
# Users outside the US might want to use this list:
# defaultchannels=IEEE80211b:1,7,13,2,8,3,14,9,4,10,5,11,6,12
# defaultchannels=IEEE80211b:1,6,11,2,7,3,8,4,9,5,10
defaultchannels=IEEE80211b:1,7,13,2,8,3,14,9,4,10,5,11,6,12

# 802.11g uses the same channels as 802.11b...
# defaultchannels=IEEE80211g:1,6,11,2,7,3,8,4,9,5,10
defaultchannels=IEEE80211g:1,7,13,2,8,3,14,9,4,10,5,11,6,12

# 802.11a channels are non-overlapping so sequential is fine.  You may want to
# adjust the list depending on the channels your card actually supports.
#defaultchannels=IEEE80211a:36,40,44,48,52,56,60,64,100,104,108,112,116,120,124,128,132,136,140,149,153,157,161,184,188,192,196,200,204,208,212,216
defaultchannels=IEEE80211a:36,40,44,48,52,56,60,64

# Combo cards like Atheros use both 'a' and 'b/g' channels.  Of course, you
# can also explicitly override a given source.  You can use the script
# extras/listchan.pl to extract all the channels your card supports.
defaultchannels=IEEE80211ab:1,6,11,2,7,3,8,4,9,5,10,36,40,44,48,52,56,60,64

Does anyone have an idea to fix this?
