[kismac] Re: prism2 driver woes

thanks for the info! the goal is not to have kismac running whenever the the machine is on, it is that kismac fails to unload the driver sometimes, forcing a reboot the next time i want to run it. typically this happens every few days, and usually after i leave it one for a few hours or more (although sometimes it only scans for like 30 sec and stops)

what exactly does the driver tool do? can't i just go into /dev/ and type some stuff to do the same thing?

thanks,

g

also, i am currently not using any 'real' drivers like ioxpert's or

use it instead of its own driver and thereby skip the whole loading
/ unloading process?

Not unless you elect to run PseudoJack on top of the third-party driver.

If you want the full stealth features of KisMac, you need to use the built-in MacJack driver.

its kind of frustrating since i'm shooting
for uptime records and this is currently forcing me to reboot every
few days!

You could set the machine to auto-login on boot/reboot, auto-start KisMac on login, and then set KisMac to auto-scan on startup.
