Libpcap doesn't support Linux USB, period, yet, if by "yet" you mean "in any release that tcpdump.org has put out". Perhaps your distribution has added Linux USB support from, for example, top-of-CVS-tree libpcap; the *current* top-of-CVS tree libpcap should support the binary interface, but perhaps your distribution has an earlier version of the code that doesn't support it. What version of what distribution are you running? _______________________________________________ Wireshark-dev mailing list [email protected] https://wireshark.org/mailman/listinfo/wireshark-dev
