Hi Eriberto, sadly I only have one machine on testing, but it is pretty recent with no shortage on power and an SSD. The interface doesn't matter, just tried with wlan0, same game. I also reinstalled the packages to be sure with the disk (although I'd rather not assume the SSD to fail).
I tried to debug the process with gdb, but ended up with optimized symbols of variables... To eliminate as many sources of failures as possible, I downloaded debian live (mate) 8.4.0 and loaded it up on the host. debian 8.4: scanning works After upgrade to stretch: segfaults as previously. I tried another computer, same procedure: test with stable, upgrade to testing and run netdiscover -i eth0 in both stages. To my astonishment, it worked fine there. So... since "hardware" seems more like the reason of this segfault, I would probably blame some kernel module... but I didn't reboot in the live image nor restarted the interfaces so another module or firmware could be loaded. I don't have exotic hardware (it's a T440p with intel network for eth and wifi), and since it's working on stable, I assume the hardware is not faulty. What else is between netdiscover and the kernel? Can I test libpcap in a similar way as netdiscover does or use some debugging foo with netdiscover? Thorsten
