Re: [coLinux-users] Never heard back from anybody regarding Kismet...

[<ch...@to...>]

Check the windows XP native bridging thread. There is a posting by Sam
Liddicott saying that he was able to disable the adapter in windows an
load a linux driver. (colinux can directly access hardware if windows is
not using it) This method would probably work for what you want to do. Yo=
u
will not have direct access to this through windows but could probably
setup a tap and route the windows traffic through linux and then back out
the wifi card. You will probably have to compile your wifi card module
seperatly for a non coLinux enabled kernel of the same patch level.
