Actually not, I can not make a rule from that. sometimes is is in state R, but 
continues capturing. sometimes in state S and stopped (maybe I don't see the 
R, because I call ps every second)

Do you think this is a pcap or wireshark problem?
Anything else I can try?

tcpdump works fine, is there a way to use it for capturing in wireshark? At 
the moment I capture with tcpdump and open the file in wireshark.

Kind Regards,
Michael
