I installed 4.6-RC2, and now I'm seeing higher-level protocol info :)

BUT!

Now 802.11 beacons are mangled.  Kismet now reports all networks as <no 
ssid> and Ethereal says "Malformed Packet"  
Check out http://www.severus.org/wifi-caps/sample 

I'm not going to worry too much about this until 4.6 is oficially 
released.  Does anyone know if monitor mode is ever going to be 
natively supported by OpenBSD?  Can the FreeBSD driver/ancontrol be 
ported?
