Wireshark-users: [Wireshark-users] [FIXED] Can't find USB device

I got Wireshark up and running with USB. The problem was that /proc/bus/usb wasn't being populated for some reason.

mount -t usbfs /dev/bus/usb /proc/bus/usb

Hello all ---

I'm trying to get Wireshark to work with USB. Reading through the wiki and the archives I've done the following:

- verified that usbmon is on my system

- compiled libpcap CVS from tcpdump.org (version reads 0.9 - PRECVS, is this correct??)

- recompiled wireshark with new libpcap
- started up usbmon then wireshark

Yet, when I go capture -> interfaces, I still just see the normal eth0, eth1, etc. No USB interfaces.

Anyone have any ideas about what I'm missing?

Thanks,

Daniel

P.S.

I apologize if this gets double-posted - Thunderbird and I had a little spat.
