Description of problem: ethereal-0.10.3-2.2, as did some earlier versions, after running for a while, goes into a sleep state, does not update the displays, and can't be coaxed out of sleep. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): ethereal-0.10.3-2.2 How reproducible: Every time Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start ethereal from a command line. 2. Start a capture. 3. Watch display after a while lock up and never change. 4. Kill ethereal-associated windows by clicking on the X. 5. Observe that the window from which you started ethereal doesn't return a command prompt until you press <ctrl>-c. Actual results: ethereal goes to sleep (S state in ps) Expected results: ethereal keeps capturing packets Additional info:
I've tried it with the current version of the development tree and couldn't reproduce the problem after half an hour and several capture tests/runs. Read ya, Phil
I'm currently seeing this on FC3 (both test2 and test3). The current version I'm running is ethereal-0.10.6-3. I've not yet ethereal work on FC3.
