Hello there I've setup Wireshark using 'apt-get install wireshark' and followed the setup-configuration for non-root user (see Wireshark doesn't see my interface). What I finally did, was following: But after that i still cannot see any interface. What am I missing? edit: if it does matter i'm using linux mint 12 |

See the answer from a duplicate post. You don't need to manually add the "wireshark" group; $ sudo apt-get install wireshark $ sudo dpkg-reconfigure wireshark-common $ sudo usermod -a -G wireshark $USER $ gnome-session-quit --logout --no-prompt Perfectly, that was the trick. I suggest to follow the linked post for more details.

I have tried the suggested four lines of code above. However at the same time i have "wireshark" group manually added without the "wireshark" user and the code did not work for me. After that i tried to remove the group "wireshark" with "sudo groupdel wireshark" command. Finally the code above is worked for me thank you very much. Best Regards.

Improvement on https://ask.wireshark.org/answer_link/8012/ helloworld's answer So you dont have to restart gnome, use newgrp to switch groups |

Log out and log in again. Adding a currently logged in user to a group using did that already multiple times (and tested now again). I don't get interfaces without sudo :( to be sure everything i did is correct?!
