Despite warnings about running Wireshark as root, on my Ubuntu 9.10
system the app sees no network interfaces unless I run it as root. Is
this normal? I've googled for "Ubuntu wireshark" and it does seem that
self-styled journalists (blogs) recommend running as root, but I do
not trust them for best practices.

Thanks.
