I'm not able to capture through the GUI on 0.10.1.  The "Capture Options"
dialog appears, but when I click "OK" the capture window doesn't appear and
no packet information appears in the main window.  There are no messages in
the terminal.  

I've tried a number of things:

1.  Upgraded from the beta version of winpcap to 3.0 proper.
2.  Uninstalled, installed 0.10.0 (works), reinstalled 0.10.1 (doesn't work)
3.  Tried with GTK 1 and GTK 2 (neither works)
4.  Ran tethereal with 0.10.1.  (works -- i.e., captures and displays
packets)
5.  Loaded a previously captured file with 0.10.1 (works)

This is on win98SE.  The PC has two 3com 3c905b NICs. Anybody else seeing
anything similar?
