Hi:

I have had this problem ... actually I think since I upgraded to 6.0.
But I have just upgraded base and rebuilt kismet and the problem remains.

Whenever I try to run kismet I get the following error:

FATAL: Unknown capture source type 'madwifi_bg' in source
   'madwifi_bg,ath0,default'

I have a 3Com 11a/g card with Atheros chipset, and tried with both
madwifi_ag, madwifi_bg, madwifi_b and madwifi_g. Same result.

It appears that madwifi is not compiled but I can't figure where to
enable that.

How do I get madwifi working again?

Thanks, Erik
