Well, I downgraded (isn't eix wonderful?) to ethereal 0.10.11 I got the same problem, but more details on the failure <snip> /home/james/.kde3.4/share/config/gtkrc:37: error: unexpected identifier `gtk-alternative-button-order', expected keyword - e.g. `style' <snip> So I commented out line 37 in gtkrc #gtk-alternative-button-order = 1 Now it does not die upon termination of a capture session.... looks like a kde_vs_gtk config/parameter feud.... so I re emerged the latest (portage) version of ethereal. It now works fine, so line 37 in /home/james/.kde3.4/share/config/gtkrc:37 was/is the problem.... Comments or a more robust method of fixing/patching ethereal?
