But that doesn't list available networks.  I was talking about 
identifying available networks.  By doing this, you can at least see if 
there's anything out there to connect to.

If you want the gui version, kwifimanager does a pretty decent job of 
managing your card and search for existing networks.  Gives a good 
'picture' of the card status.

for the command line, iwlist gives a good bit of data based on available 
networks:

iwlist interface scan

kismet is a whole different animal.  It requires setting up and configuring.
