(la wlan1, creo q es la tarjeta d mi minihp-atom, sera compatible tambien?)
bueno eso  va masomenos, luego a la hora de reiniciar, vuelvo con iwconfig y solo reconoce al wlan1.

ADEMAS D TODO NO TIENE INSTALADAO EL AIRCRACK-NG, por lo q lo trato de instalar asi: ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo apt-get install aircrack-ng
Leyendo lista de paquetes... Hecho
Creando árbol de dependencias       
Leyendo la información de estado... Hecho
E: No se pudo encontrar el paquete aircrack-ng
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ airmon-ng start wlan0
El programa «airmon-ng» no está instalado actualmente.  Puede instalarlo escribiendo:
sudo apt-get install aircrack-ng
Ha de activar el componente «universe»

no lo encuentro ni en el gestor de paketes, otra forma de conseguirlo,
me baje el ubuntu de aki: http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/download y lo estoy usando como pendrive (en el q se pueden guardar los cambios, xq aparecen los archivos copiados)
un poko de ayuda!!!!
