Hi!

I've just tried to update net-mgmt/kismet, and at least it runs
on my laptop, but it does not work on the WLAN interface. I've did this:

cd /usr/local/etc
vi kismet.conf
ncsource=wlan0:type=radiotap_bsd

Then it says:

  BSD interface set media command failed.  The drivers for this device may
  not support radiotap operation.

So my questions are:

Which devices do support radiotap operation and what is radiotap operation ?
