[kismac] Re: KisMAC 0.04a GPS Success

Hey,

this seems to be something keyspan specific. unfortunately i dont have

did you look into console.app for an error description? kismac should 
throw something out on it. and did you plug everything in before you 
started kismac (it does not handle hotplugging)?
