Hello,
I have newest version 2.6.1 of the wireshark. In the capture interfaces, I was wondering if there is a way to changes for ens33 the link-layer from DLT-1 to ethernet ?
I see on clicking the compile bpfs the output as 'unknown data link type -1'. I think because of this I am unable to capture anything even though all the permissions have given.
Please advice.
Best Regards,

That's a bug. Please report it on the Wireshark Bugzilla so we can attempt to figure out what's causing it and fix it.
What does tcpdump print when you run sudo tcpdump -i ens33? In particular, what are the first two lines it prints? It should print something such as
tcpdump: verbose output suppressed, use -v or -vv for full protocol decode
listening on ens33, link-type {something}, capture size {something} bytes
Hi Thanks for the reply.
I can confirm that that on doing sudo tcpdump -i ens33 I see the above two lines..with ens33, link-type EN10MB (Ethernet). I have reported a bug with #14847. In the mean time, is there other stable version of the wireshark I could use?
This bug seems to appear only when I am trying to capture on thet st dev version. I tried to install version 2.4.7 but still get the above problem when capturing. I have tried sudo dpkg-reconfigure wireshark-common but issue still persists.
