airodriver-ng error

megapatato · #1 6th October 2009, 06:35 PM

Hi all, I wanted to get the whole AirCrack suite and downloaded the aircrack.i586 package with yum. It installed related programs (is this the correct term? programs sounds too Windows...). I know I need to update the drivers, or atleast patch them. So I ran airodriver-ng.
Now the issue is with the airodriver-ng part is:

Code:

[root@GremmlinF11 MP]# airdriver-ng install 14
Driver "Intel Pro Wireless 4965 A/B/G/N" specified for installation.
DI_DRIVERPATH1[14] isn't set, you need at least one driver source!
Running "depmod -ae"...
Failed to install the driver.
Look through "/var/log/airdriver" for errors.

When I look at /var/log/airdriver it just says:

Code:

Tue Oct  6 11:26:58 CDT 2009
Installing "Intel Pro Wireless 4965 A/B/G/N" on 2.6.30.8-64.fc11.i586.

Which is not much help at all. I've figured I need to download the driver I require and put it *somewhere*. So the problem is what driver, and where to put it. Do I need the patch? The patched driver? The firmware?? I KNOW it is the Intel 4965 having checked the AiroCrack forums, wiki, and tutorials...
On a side note, when I search for this type of error I always find something related to different gcc versions used to compile the kernel and the driver, however I do not have this error (being a yum installation I figure).
Any help is appreciated

Hello megapatato:

I have reluctantly closed this thread, until the Staff have discussed it's merits and decide to open it again (or not). In the meantime, anyone wishing to assist the OP may send via PM.

Although the aircrack software is indeed included in the Fedora repos, many questions have been raised in the past regarding the high potential for illegitimate/misuse of this software. So far as I can determine, most or all prior posts inquiring about aircrack have been summarily closed with the same notes as above.

You will be privately notified about the results of the Staff discussions. Please do not attempt to open any other threads on this topic.
