Can't capture bluetooth packets

Hi,

 

I have a version of Wireshark running on Linux Fedora 14, which I had been
using in the past to analyze Bluetooth protocol packets sent to and from the
computer.

However, it has been a long time since I used it and I can't seem to capture
any Bluetooth packets any more. (It works fine for other interfaces).

 

I have installed the following:

 

Libpcap-1.1.1-3.fc14.i686.rpm

Wireshark-1.4.10-1.fc14.i686.rpm

Wireshark-gnome-1.4.10-1.fc14.i686.rpm

 

And I am running Kernel 2.6.35.6-45.fc14.i686 with Gnome 2.32.0

 

If I bring up the Wireshark dialog box that lists the number of Bluetooth
packets per interface I can see the Bluetooth packets increase when I send
and receive Bluetooth information. But I get nothing in the capture window.

 

Because I've had it working before, I feel like I am missing something
simple that I have just forgotten to do.

 

Please help!

 

Regards,

Paul
