Drivers seem to be corrupt

[Esona]

Is anyone else noticing their wifi pineapple isn't exactly doing what it use to do before the 2.02 update? I just updated it a couple days ago and noticed I haven't been able to get results in SiteSurvey anymore, and I'm pretty sure the pineapple killed one of my wifi dongles (like, actually. It doesn't even turn on when it's plugged into my computer anymore)

I logged in with SSH after doing a factory reset (Held the reset button for 10 seconds) and tried starting airmon-ng on wlan1... This is what I got....

Found 1 processes that could cause trouble.
If airodump-ng, aireplay-ng or airtun-ng stops working after
a short period of time, you may want to run 'airmon-ng check kill'

grep: invalid option -- P
BusyBox v1.23.2 (2017-12-23 03:20:07 UTC) multi-call binary.

Usage: grep [-HhnlLoqvsriwFE] [-m N] [-A/B/C N] PATTERN/-e PATTERN.../-f FILE [FILE]...

Search for PATTERN in FILEs (or stdin)

        -H      Add 'filename:' prefix
        -h      Do not add 'filename:' prefix
        -n      Add 'line_no:' prefix
        -l      Show only names of files that match
        -L      Show only names of files that don't match
        -c      Show only count of matching lines
        -o      Show only the matching part of line
        -q      Quiet. Return 0 if PATTERN is found, 1 otherwise
        -v      Select non-matching lines
        -s      Suppress open and read errors
        -r      Recurse
        -i      Ignore case
        -w      Match whole words only
        -x      Match whole lines only
        -F      PATTERN is a literal (not regexp)
        -E      PATTERN is an extended regexp
        -m N    Match up to N times per file
        -A N    Print N lines of trailing context
        -B N    Print N lines of leading context
        -C N    Same as '-A N -B N'
        -e PTRN Pattern to match
        -f FILE Read pattern from file

Channel 10 does not appear to be supported by wlan1mon hardware, defaulting to channel 3.

Curious to find out if anyone else is getting some weird results...

The airmon-ng output has changed because we ship a different version of grep, which produces the output you see - regardless, the program works as it should and does indeed put the interface into monitor mode.
