My google searching discovers this is pervasive. None the less, I can't seem to solve it on my system.
If I type: sudo wireshark in Terminal (and give password) then I get: (wireshark:528): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: If I navigate waaaaay down the tree in opt/local/var/db/dports/software/wireshark/0.99.5_0+darwin_8/opt/local/share and double click the unix executable Wireshark, then it runs but obviously hasn't the ability to find the network points. One time, shortly after re-installing X-11 this morning, I was able to do a sudo wireshark and have it run corectly AND locate the various network points. When I discovered that none of my running programs could get to the Internet anymore, I suspected Wireshark had intercepted the en1 path and thus I re-booted ... all worked fine except I no longer can run wireshark. Would some kind soul guide me back to success? thanks ... -- Frobozz Mac OS/X 10.4.8 Macbook Pro 2.16 Intel Core Duo wireshark 0.99.5 X11 1.1.3 - XFree86 4.4.0 Darwin _______________________________________________ Wireshark-users mailing list Wireshark-users@wireshark.org http://www.wireshark.org/mailman/listinfo/wireshark-users
