Uh, this is embarrassing. If anyone has
ever heard of Alienware and their widows theme packages, you may be aware that
is doesn’t work well with GTK at all. The packets were there in the list of
ethereal all along but were not visible because the text and background were
both white while using the alienware theme’s color scheme. Pretty hard to
read!!!
Mystery solved.

Subject: [Ethereal-users] Why is
ethereal on widows only capturing "1" (one)packet?
I’m capturing with ethereal on Debian without any
problem. Unfortunately, at the other end, I only have a windows box.
Here are the particulars:
Version 0.10.11 (C) 1998-2005 Gerald
Combs <gerald@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
Compiled with GTK+ 2.4.14, with GLib
2.4.7, with WinPcap (WinPcap_3_1_beta4-1),
with libz 1.2.2, with libpcre 4.4,
with Net-SNMP 5.1.2, with ADNS.
Running with WinPcap version 3.1
beta4 (packet.dll version 3, 1, 0, 24), based on libpcap version 0.8.3 on
Windows XP Service Pack 2, build 2600.
While I’m still looking for this answer, I figured
I’d drop a message here too.
Why is ethereal on widows only capturing “1”
(one) packet?
