I have an iBook2 with an airport card in it, and I was looking for a way
to list all the access points. I tried "iwlist eth0 scan", but it
doesn't seem to be supported. Is it possible with this card? It seems
to work on OS X. There seems to be some stuff in the driver for this,
but it seems incomplete.

Theres a patch available that will allow you to put the airport card
into monitor mode, I tried but never got it working but others have.
Google is your friend as I dont have the URL off hand. Then it's simply
a matter of using a sniffing program such as Airsnort or Kismet to list
the local access points.
