try (as root):
Code:
ifconfig wlan0 up
The interface needs to be up before you can scan, you can't scan because the wireless chip cannot communicate with the rest of the devices due to firmware not being loaded. So you need to have the interface up either way.

Thanks, will do. I installed aircrack-ng, how do I install kismet?
Code:
sudo gainroot
Code:
apt-get install kismet
this isn't working for me?

When I try 'ifconfig wlan0 up'
I get this error 'ifconfig: SIOCSIFFLAGS: No such device'

I'm not sure what this means?
