radiotap on linux

Hi all,

I'm working on setting up radiotap header capture on Linux. I'm running the
latest kernel (2.6.16.18) with the radiotap extensions compiled in. I'm using
the madwifi-ng driver with an Atheros card. I pulled the latest tcpdump from
CVS. It looks like tcpdump is receiving the radiotap packets, but it can't
decode them. Here's the output I get:

21:22:43.157339 unknown IEEE802.11 frame type (3)(header) unknown IEEE802.11
frame type (3)unknown 802.11 frame type (3)
        0x0000:  ffff ffff ffff 0002 6f21 e671 0806 0321
        0x0010:  0800 0604 0001 0002 6f21 e671 c0a8 0101
        0x0020:  0000 0000 0000 c0a8 0102

Has anyone been able to get this to work? 

Thanks,
Matt Belcher
