After I downloaded and installed Wireshark to my Linux Box. I remotely
connected  into my Linux box from another PC running Windows-XP using X-Window
Application.  I could run successfully X-window application from Linux to my
PC-Window-Xp like xlock.  But the wireshrk is failing the process.

below is the process in my X-Windows screen from the PC running
Windows-XP
