How are you accessing the system where you're running Wireshark? ssh?
It is a LAN connection, but its not over SSH. The machine wireshark is running on is a vmware guest. It's a little
on the slow side, but generally unusable.
Once Wireshark is up, is it usable [going to Gerald's suggestion]?
Maybe Wireshark can/should disable the splash screen when run over ssh?
ssh doesn't imply a slow connection but it's probably reasonably common.
Maybe any kind of network startup should have the splash updating scaled back. Although at this point I guess most
remote X traffic does flow over SSH. I guess you can detect remote connections via GdkDisplay->use_xshm or
XShmQueryExtension(), detecting if they are SSH is probably a little harder.
Actually detecting ssh shouldn't be too hard: when you ssh somewhere
your shell gets some environment variables from ssh.
