I've upgraded to FreeBSD 4.6 -RELEASE and done some sniffing with my 
Cisco LMC352 pccard...

Good news:  Ethereal is now decoding higher-level protocol info 
properly.

The new an() driver is returning different header data now.  These 
diffs break Kismet, so I'm working on a patch to fix it.  I've done two 
sample dumps with Kismet with FreeBSD 4.5 and 4.6 if anyone wants to 
see the differences:

These were done in -M 7 monitor mode.  The beaconing AP is a Linksys 
WAP11 that's currently using WEP.  Some of the scattering of probe 
requests are noise (believe it or not) from a passing city bus.  Enjoy.
