Re: why is it so difficult to stop capturing with wireshark 1.6.10 in fedora 16

hello,

does this happen when you are capturing a under high traffic load? i
have had the same experience with windows systems when the traffic
load was very high.

it might be an option to capture via tcpdump or set a maximum amount
of traffic before the capture automatically stops.

HI,

    I installed wireshark on two computers, both with fedora 16 linux
system.
    I find it very hard to stop capturing once you have started the
capturing.  I have to click on the "stop the running live capture" button
for many times and then suddenly the clicking works.

    what is wrong with this? thanks!
