Hi,

When I run 'sudo tcpdump' I can see packets.

When I run 'sudo wireshark' I can see adapter "enp4s0" but it has a 
message saying /usr/share/wireshark/init.lua:44: dofile has been 
disabled due to running Wireshark as SuperUser.

When I run Wireshark from the GUI, it does not list any of the adapters 
I am familiar with, but things like "Cisco" "randpkt" and "ssh" ...

How do I get it to see the real NIC?


Thanks,

Where the gist is to reconfigure the package: sudo dpkg-reconfigure wireshark-common

Thanks,
Jaap
