the card is prism2 not orinco. the card itself works fine, kismet is
the one with the problem.

if i don't have the wlan stuff instaled kismet chokes, and starts
crying and asking where it is. in the kismet.conf file the 'Packet
source' variable has the option of what cardtype to use, and all the
prism cardtypes seem to require wlan-ng stuff. if you are using an
orinco card, it doesn't look like you'd need it.
