    Hi all,
    I've recently bought an N900 (again ), because I got interested in security related stuff, and a mobile pen testing platform: how cool is that!

    Anyway, I've been messing around with the device the last few days, and I've decided that I wanted to keep all my fiddling around in an Easy Debian image, so when I mess something up, I don't have to reflash my whole device every time again. Also, some stuff is just easier to install into easy debian than maemo, because of dependencies/repo's etc.

    So I've installed the bleeding edge wifi drivers, and I installed aircrack-ng and some other tools in easy debian. I load the bleeding edge drivers and put the card into monitor mode in maemo, and start aircrack-ng in the debian terminal.
    Injection works etc, but when airodumping my home network, I don't get a handshake. I tried manually disconnecting my notebook, and sending deauth packets, but I still don't get a handshake.
    When analyzing the file in wireshark, there are also no handshake packets(using the filter eapol.keydes.type == 254).

    HOWEVER, if I use aircrack-ng in maemo(decided to install it, because it worked there before), it does work, and I get a handshake as soon as my notebook connects.

    How to fix this? :/

    Easy Debian is "emulated". It may not have all hardware or all modules.
    Just install backtrack as a separate OS... It's in the Alternatives section.

    Chroot =/= emulating, afaik?
    The weird thing is that I can inject from easy debian lol.

    And with backtrack, you mean neopwn? I guess I'll have to try it out then. I've read something about the leak being backdoored or something like that. What's a safe version?

    Anyway, my question still stands, it intrigues me

    chroot is not emulating. Not even close.

    I'm curious as to why you need to have this done from within a chroot, when it works fine in a regular Maemo environment.

    Well, I wanted to try out the "Wifite" script, which required aircrack-ng 1.1 or later (and some other tools). I tried it with the standard aircrack from the repo, but somehow it didn't manage to actually get any handshakes/crack wep, where there was no problem when doing it manually.
    I tried upgrading to 1.1, but that proved to be harder than I thought it would be (how hard can it be to install a program, lol). After apt-getting it from a debian repo, something else broke, and I figured that it might be easier to install all this stuff in debian.

    Also, installing everything in Debian meant I could easily start over when something was wrong, by just copying the most recent, working modified image again, instead of reflashing and/or using some backup program for the phone. And I figured that it would keep the phone more clean, although I'm not sure if that really matters (as much) as it does in Windows.

    The install proved to be a lot easier/straight forward, but now ofcourse it doesn't capture any handshakes, not even manually

    aircrack 1.1 for maemo is available. search the aircrack/faircrack threads. someone (creamy g. i think) posted it there.

    well I'd probably manage to get it installed now, but I'd like to use it in easy debian environment, for the other reasons

    it should work, shouldn't it?

    FWIW i'm using wifite.py in normal maemo and it works.

    Get aircrack-ng 1.1 from here:

    Thanks for the link, I'll try it out later
    However, I would still like to know why it is not working in easy debian, and if it's fixable.

    N900 users should definitely understand that

    EDIT: needs IW, which is not in one of my current repo's apparantly, I'll mess with it tomorrow, need some sleep lol.
