If you are using Backtrack 5 or Backtrack 5 R1 within a Vmware while using USB Wifi Devices like the RTL8187 Chipset ( ALFA AWUS 036H ) you run probably into this Error Message:
airmon-ng start wlan0
SIOCSIFFLAGS: Unknown error 132 message
To solve this issue, use the following commands:
prepare-kernel-sources
cd /usr/src/linux/drivers/net/wireless/rtl818x/rtl8187/
wget http://backtrack-linux.org/silly-rfkill-patch.patch
patch -p0 < silly-rfkill-patch.patch
cd /usr/src/linux
make drivers/net/wireless/rtl818x/rtl8187/rtl8187.ko
cp drivers/net/wireless/rtl818x/rtl8187/rtl8187.ko /lib/modules/2.6.39.4/kernel/drivers
/net/wireless/rtl818x/rtl8187/rtl8187.ko
After that reboot your vmware/backtrack, and your issue is solved.
