Can you provide a link to the last working version? I can diff it with the current version and try to find where this bug was introduced.

Also, the script uses iwconfig to detect devices with Mode:Monitor ... can you paste the output of iwconfig to see if there's some inconsistency there?

I was getting something similar. Stopped network manager and the problem went away. I know, my own fault, but it would be nice if this was caught/warned about.

Now I'm in archlinux and the problem persists but something in what @iggy said its related to something I discover a few days ago:

I was getting something similar. Stopped network manager and the problem went away. I know, my own fault, but it would be nice if this was caught/warned about.

I was trying to make it work putting my interface in monitor mode using airmon-ng manually and before it start, it suggests that some processes may cause troubles, in that list I have:

PID | Name
... | avahi-daemon
... | NetworkManager
... | avahi-daemon
... | wpa_supplicant
... | dhclient

I tried stop NetworkManager and it worked perfectly!.
