Confirmed, this is I suppose an oversight rather than a bug (splitting hairs?)
The problem stems from the fact that regular users do not have sufficient privileges to capture packets, so the interfaces are not shown. http://wiki.wireshark.org/CaptureSetup/CapturePrivileges explains this in a little more detail. Elevating privileges using gksu would do the job nicely I think, as a suggestion. -- [Hardy] No interfaces when starting wireshark from menu https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/209647 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
