I must be hallucinating, as I've just done a clean re-instll from the
same media, and it acts the same way, WCPU of kismet_server going to
107% (!), the machine going nearly comatose, and networks not being found.

I'm now really confused as to where I need to start looking, as I don't
have a working reference point.

Can someone that has kismet working correctly run it with stderr pointed
elsewhere and see if you get the:

"WARNING:  pcap reports link type of EN10MB but we'll fake it on BSD."

message?

Thanks,
