What should I show installed? I have read these forums till I'm blue and cannot seem to get this app to run. Appreciate any help...

As I stated, I used Xterm and then thought I became root. This is where I am stuck. Am I not accessing root correctly? I know how to do this in Red Hat, etc (su)...is becoming root different on the N800 (sudo gainroot) [the prompt changes to $]? Obviously, I would not be trying to install aircrack if I had encryption codes available.

You can check wether you are logged in as root by looking at the character at the prompt: '#' means you're logged im as root, '$' means you're not.

I don't know of any jurisdictions in which that would be a felony. Misdemeanor maybe, but felony?

Some of this may sound like dumb questions, but to double check...
--> Once you gain root, when you type "whoami" does it actually return 'root'?
--> If your having trouble gaining root, 1. Make sure you have gainroot installed. 2. If that doesnt work, you could always use the ssh root@localhome method.
--> Airodump. When you use it, you have to type airodump-ng not just 'airodump'.
example, airodump-ng -c <channel> -w <filename> wlan0
of course the channel and filename wont have <> around it.
Get back if any of that does anything for ya.
