I try many times with many drivers to set my alfa wifi adaptater on monitor mode. But When i try with iw i get a weird error and when i try with airmon-ng, It says "monitor mode enabled" however when i type iwconfig my alfa is still in managed mode. I also tried with airodump-ng without successe. Here are my command :
