Is there an open source network monitor software that can capture packets from a wireless router

Even though not connected to the wireless router? Is there an open source program that can do this. I know of several programs that capture packets, but you actually have to be connected to the wireless router.. When I say connected I’m not mean physically I mean connecting by putting the wep or wap key. I want to capture packets from my laptop.

How do I number rows in an Open Office /Microsoft word table?

Hello everybody, I am trying to create a signature list for a petition with 4 columns and 300 rows. It would be very helpful if at the begining of the row would be consecutive numbers so that one can see how many signatures have accumulated already. Any idea how to enable that feature in Open office or Microsoft word?

Ultimate Virtualization in Ubuntu

Who needs a Mac to run “Parallels”? Don’t be deceived by the “Windows vs. Mac” ads; they conveniently forget to mention Linux; a FREE alternative, which blows both out of the water. In this video, you’ll see FL Studio 7 running in Windows XP within Ubuntu on a PC. I’ve also demonstrated the 3D capabilities of the following software combination: Ubuntu Feisty, Beryl, VMWare Workstation 6 (running Windows XP with FL Studio 7 running perfectly with very little CPU usage), Google Earth & Mozilla Firefox w/ Flash 9.
