I connect from a Sun (2.6 or 2.7) to a Linux rehat 9 system.  I start
etheral (0.9.13) and the display opens on my sun workstation ok.  I can
start a capture but when I select Stop the capture windows closes and just
after the packets start to appear in the ethereal windown that window also
closes.  At times another windows pops open for just a second, an error
maybe, but closes to fast to read it.  If I start a capture and selecte
"Update list of packets in real time" both windows close as soon as the
first packets appear.

It runs ok if I run directly from the linux system console.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

Dave kaas
