0.13 and cvs drivers with monitor mode

Hello,

  Please tell me why new cvx and 0.15 orinoco-pcmcia not support
  monitor mode on 8.72 firmware with channel hoping and this monitor
  mode is unstable...

  Old 0.13e drivers didn't support directly monitor mode, but with
  rtfmon and dragorn patches + patches for 2.6.x kernel support these
  old drivers for orinoco-pcmcia are the best for monitoring purposes.
  They support all firmwares (also without problem 8.72 with channel
  hoping) and works stable in monitor mode without any interrupts.
  These patched drivers with full monitor and kismet mode support you
  could download from:

  http://www.kismetwireless.net/code/orinoco-0.13-26-r1.tar.gz

  HOWTO: http://www.kismetwireless.net/HOWTO-orinoco-drivers.txt

  So, why 0.15 and cvs line of this drivers don't support channel
  hoping in monitor mode in 8.72 firmware and monitor mode is very
  unstable?

  I must add, that generally new drivers in CVS are better than 0.13
  to usual work, they support wireless tools, iwlist scanning, etc,
  etc. But monitoring with kismet in newest drivers is practically
  impossible (that wrote me kimset developer). And unfortunately there
  is no monitor patch for orinoco-usb devices...
