Whatever version of Kismet I have on my laptop from this Spring works fine.  
Since it's dual boot I don't have the configuration handy right now.  It's 
worked fine since 2002-10-12 and probably before.  You need to run the 
kismet_hopper so the Prism card will hop channels.  As to the error, I don't 
know.

I don't have any; I just start it (several of its binaries) from the command 
line.
