I installed kismet new core in a VM and I'm trying to use it with an  
ALFA USB (RT8187) wifi adapter. I was successful using this with  
kismet stable on a standard laptop (non-vm) running Linux.

according to iwconfig, the adapter is being recognized as wlan1 and it  
works properly with aerodump-ng and using airmon-ng I was able to  
place the adapter in monitor mode.

So the question. What is the kismet newcore config I need to specify  
this adapter as the source.

I have tried:
   ncsource=wlan1
   ncsource=wlan1:type=rt8180
   ncsource=wlan1:name=ALFA,type=rt8180

I always get...

Failed to add source 'xxxxxxx', check your syntax and remember
        Kismet recently changed how it handles source definitions!


Am I missing something?
