I have a pre-Airport Lombard powerbook, OS 10.3.3, a Lucent
Orinoco Silver card and WirelessDriver 1.0.0b5. I can connect to
what I think is the strongest wireless network in the vicinity but
cannot figure out how to see a list of available networks. I thought
this is what the Airport Admin Utility did and that the driver can
coexist with this utility, but I can't get it to work at all.I tried
KisMac but got a kernel panic every time.

Suggestions? I'm grateful for any ideas on this.

    KisMac is giving you a kernel panic because you still have the sourceforge
    driver installed. Run the uninstaller script included with the WirelessDriver
    and then reboot. Then you can run KisMac without problems.

    Some versions of KisMac offer to patch the WirelessDriver so that it will
    unload properly. That way you can use Kismac while the sourceforge
    wireless driver is installed.

    More WirelessDriver support here:
