Hi, 
I have a 3com 3c905tx network card, plugged into a swithced port on a router.
I have ethereal installed, but I cant seem to view the real time packets.
when i enable the vieweing of real time packets, and start a capture session, ethereal sits idle.

when I disable the viewing of real time packets, i get the small dialog that shows status bars of incoming traffic, and when I end this session, I can view the packets... just not in real time for some reason.

anyone know why?
