I have kismet running perfectly.
My suggestion is to patch your in kernel (for orinoco) driver as described by me here:
http://www.yak.net/fqa/343.html

If you need to have wlan I would be suprised, it tends to be a pile of junky code in my experence.

What card do you have?
What firmware version?
What is the interfaces name? (it should be wlan0 if your using that junk code)
