Ethereal-users: July 2004


Hi All,
   I have modified libpcap library to capture packets from a proprietary
card. Our
Device driver does not support select() call and hence in the pcap_t
structure created for our device, I have set the selectable_fd value to -1.
However, ethereal does not seem to be looking at this value before calling
select()
On our device fd due to the #define MUST_DO_SELECT defined for Linux in
capture.c
File. Is this the expected behaviour from ethereal ??

-thanks,
Umesh
