Re: Affix bluetooth stack

Yes.

Please see the newly-updated wiki page regarding this (at
http://wiki.wireshark.org/CaptureSetup/Bluetooth). It's been a long time
since I've worked with Bluetooth, but I clearly remember it working under
Fedora without any additional configuration, or effort on my part.

A "hcidump" utility from the developers of the Linux Bluetooth stack/BlueZ
also exists, should you prefer to use it to generate (Wireshark-compatible)
logs, instead - although it doesn't quite meet the criteria of "live
capturing and display" (since you have to manually reload its generated log
in Wireshark).

You could also try running "tshark -D | grep bluetooth*" (or "tshark -D |
grep hci*") as root, or using "sudo" to see if your Bluetooth interface
appears.

I hope that helps,

Tyson.

Hi Vijay,

There's no need to install Affix under KUbuntu (although installing other
stuff from the repositories related to Bluetooth wouldn't hurt). Just
enable Bluetooth connectivity as normal, and connect your adapter if
necessary.

Hi,

I not sure if this is the correct forum to post this but, Could some one
tell me if it is possible to install affix bluetooth stack in kubuntu?
Currently BLueZ bluetooth stack is installed and wireshark requires
Affix stack for live capture of bluetooth traffic.

The affix website says that it can be installed in a kernel with version
2.6.x or higher, and the version of the kernel I have installed is 3.0.X.
Now can
I install the affix stack in my OS? or Affix doesnt support Kubuntu?

Thanks
