Ethereal-users: [ethereal-users] AIX: gtk problem solved, now an ethereal problem
Hi,
After much sweat and toil, I have managed to get gtk 1.2.6 to
compile and not dump core under AIX. The solutions were to
(1) apply the attached patch to the configure.in in the glib-1.2.6
subdirectory
(2) In the file gtk+-1.2.6/gtk/Makefile, add a link flag -lgdk to link
in gdk.
I have submitted (1) to the gtk-devel mailing list where it has been
accepted. (2) is an uglier problem, but for now, adding -lgdk by hand
seems to work.
Now I have a problem....I compiled gtk, and that works.
I compiled ethereal (after some minor mods), and it starts,
but when I click on Capture -> Start, I get:
"There are no network interfaces that can be opened."
I am running as root, so I don't think permissions are a problem.
Any ideas?
Thanks.
