Ethereal-dev: [ethereal-dev] problem with 'live' captures and latest CVS.
Hi all,
(you will probably get sick of me soon :)
I have come across another problem with the latest CVS build. When I try to
view the packets as they are captured, ethereal falls in a heap. This is
easily reproducible in my environment. This one only started happening
today.
Before I start trying to trace the problem, has anyone else seen this
problem? Would anyone have a suggestion on where to start looking?
Till later,
Paul
This is the stacktrace (from gdb) (just in case it helps someone...):
