If snoop on solaris allows you to read from the interface, then we can make it work.
The snoop module in wiretap (the library that Ethereal uses for reading trace files)
doesn't have any code to understand that a snoop file is lapb/X.25, but there
is a place holder in the code for it... we just need a sample trace file to get it
working. If you're able to produce a file via snoop, please send it to ethereal-dev
(or to me, if you don't want the world to see it) and I'll get Ethereal to
read it.
