Any suggestions or solutions are greatly appreciated, as I do not currently have a working Windows computer to run Wireshark on. None of the terminal commands are working for me to see any of my interfaces. I assumed that I must have done something wrong, so I closed everything and tried again, but I the same thing happened. I popped open the terminal and typed 'gksu Wireshark', the prompt for me to enter my password to run as root/admin popped up, but when I entered my password, the box just disappeared and nothing happened. I did a search on Google and a few possible solutions came up such as using sudo, gksu, and gksudo commands to open Wireshark from the terminal.

When I open Wireshark, I am unable to see any interfaces that I can capture from. This allows you to control who can run Wireshark. To run Wireshark, you must be a member of the wireshark group, which is created during installation.

On the next screen, press Tab to move the red highlight to and press the Space bar. I've used Wireshark on Windows operating systems before without any problems, however I'm new to Linux and there is quite the learning curve to getting some programs to work Press Tab to move the red highlight to and press the Space bar.

I intalled Wireshark a couple hours ago on my netbook so I could look at the traffic going through my home network.
