I have some issues while installing wireshark-gnome. see the below logs. I am using Fedora 13. I am seeing some transaction error when I issue "yum install wireshark-gnome".
[root@Fedora-ipv6 ~]# yum install wireshark-gnome

When I try to install the wireshark-gnome interface I get a notice about needing two dependencies. One is portaudio and the other is the jack-audio-connection-kit. Seems like kind of odd dependencies for wireshark. Do wireshark really need them? VoIP related maybe?
I freshly installed Wireshark on my PC by running 'yum install wireshark'. Installation succeeded. But then I cannot find how to start Wireshark. I looked already in different folders by using locate ( and updatedb) but I cannot find the place where I should invoke the program. How I can start my program?
I want to use wireshark network traffic analyser to analyse ethernet traffic in a "Abis over IP" based GSM cellular communication network. Can anybody guide me how to install WireShark in my Ubantu 9.10 Live USB drive. I cannot access internet with this USB drive but i can download pacages in a windows machine. I need to know which pacages to download and how to build wireshark from source.
I run into this error while trying to install wireshark. I am sure there is a quick fix. I can see the files are different I just don't know how to resolve the error.

I'm loving FC14, but I just find out that Wireshark is not working, as it was on FC13.Here is what's happening..... When running the application I get prompt for authentication, that was fine under FC13. I used to type my super user password, andthat was it. On FC14 I get nothing.Now when I skip the authentication the Wireshark Gui comes up, but it has no interfaces showing on my list.What I have!:
I am trying to use Wireshark and on startup the program pops up a window saying: Couldn't run /usr/sbin/dumpcap in child process: Permission denied Are you member of 'wireshark' group? Try running 'usermod -a -G wireshark <username>' as root.
I ran the usermod command to add my account in the group and checked it Code: less /etc/group wireshark:x:490:myaccount but the same error message pops up.
I noticed that in Fedora 15 Beta when you choose a minimal install then add ONLY the defaults of the "GNOME Desktop" package, you will get this error: gnome-desktop3-3.0.1-2.fc15.x86_64 has a required package:
system-backgrounds-gnome
When I look for gnome-desktop3-3.0.1-2.fc15.x86_64 it is not on any installation menu list. I prefer gnome, but installed KDE and that worked. Any ideas of getting gnome to work?
i am justin i'm 17 years old and new with linux, i use ubuntu and linux mint 7 and a friends of my has a dedicated fedora server. he asked me to intall a desktop manager ( or something that is the same, dont know how to call it ) so he could use remote desktop to acces his server
i have connected the server trought ssh and i am in the terminal. Now i want to install kde or gnome so i and my friend could use the server as a mail en WWW bla bla bla server. and my question is how i need to do that i tryd : yum groupinstall "KDE (K Desktop Environment)" and yum groupinstall "X Window System" but none works i have seen those commands on this forum so i tryd it.
Recently installed F12 through the text based install and have got to GNOME gui but when i got to system/administration i only get two options and those are for display changes. Is there some way to install the features i missed out on? namely Add/remove programs which i can't seem to find anywhere
I currently have F11 with gnome and am interested in trying out kde. I have a few questions: 1) How do I install kde so that when I log in I'll be able to choose between gnome and kde? 2) How big (disk space) is the installation? 3) Will the programs that I already have installed in gnome work with kde or will I need separate kde versions?
I installed Fedora 13 from a cd that installed just one desktop, Gnome. I wish I had used the other installation, guess its the dvd, which installs both GNOME and KDE. Nothing I've read explains how to install KDE from Gnome. I went out on my own and installed kde-desktop and all its dependencies using Gnome's Add/Remove Programs. This worked in that it gave me the GNOME / KDE option under the Sessions menu of my login screen. What I didn't expect was to see all those KDE programs under Gnome's menus.
Is there a way to install KDE that does not place all those KDE programs under Gnome's menus or is it up to me to remove any KDE program I don't whant in a Gnome menu from the list that constitutes that menu?
I have what seems to be far to many KDE programs running on my Gnome desktop is this normal?
I thought there would be gnome equivalents.
I'll list them:
Is this normal for a Gnome Desktop Fedora installation and if so which are completely arbitrary and can be removed safely?
Also is xorg supposed to use 8-20% of the CPU when all that is running is the system monitor? The system monitor application also uses 20-70% of the CPU when it is running by itself also. (Intel Pentium 4, 3.2ghz)
I didn't choose any KDE desktop Applications Intentionally
I tried to install F12 DVD (Fedora-12-i386-DVD.iso). The installation process showed it installed 200 packages and finished correctly. After reboot, it only gives me a command prompt. How do I install gnome or kde from the command prompt?
Is there a way to install just XFCE? and not Gnome or KDE? I don't mind Gnome, but I definitely don't like KDE. I have tried installing the XFCE spin to my hard drive, but when I use yum to update packages later, using the default repository, yum wants to install Gnome for some strange reason, and a bunch of other stuff I don't need. Is there a way to prevent this? because really you'd think the XFCE spin would setup yum so Gnome wouldn't be installed, wouldn't you think? I don't really mind Gnome being installed, its just that I never use it, I always use XFCE, so it seems like a waste of disk space to even install it.
well I guess the graphical boot loader uses Gnome, I don't know, but I do know yum installs a bunch of other stuff I don't use after the XFCE spin is installed to the hard drive. How do I prevent that from happening is what I'm asking?

i mean, using Fedora 14. i had windows 7 so i decided to move on!! LOL, i have Fedora 14 Gnome, and i want to install Kepete Messenger but it does not appear in Add/Remove Software in Fedora, and i cant find it in internet.
Just installed fc13 and wasn't given the option for kde.... I like the desktop effect and Widgets.... is there a way to do the same with gnome???? If not what packages do I. Install from the apps list?
I'm using Fedora 14 GNOME. At least until tomorrow when 15 beta comes out Anyway, I'm trying to install drivers for my wireless card. It's a Realtek Semiconductor, RTL8191SEvB. I'm using RTL8192 drivers, which work just fine when I can get them to install. I have all of the necessary files to install it, and they've worked before on a previous Fedora 14 (KDE) install. I cd into the drive and run "sudo make" which gives me the following:
The Wireshark website specifically warns against running WireShark as Root....
Quote:
Administrator/root account not required!
Many Wireshark users think that Wireshark requires a root/Administrator account to work with.
That's not a good idea, as using a root account makes any exploit far more dangerous: a successful exploit will have immediate control of the whole system, compromising it completely.
First of all, most Wireshark functions can always be used with a (probably very limited) user account. In particular, the protocol dissectors which have shown most of the security related bugs do not need a root account!
Only capturing (and gathering capture interface information) may require a root account, but even that can usually be "circumvented", see CaptureSetup/CapturePrivileges for details how to do so.
