Wireshark-dev: [Wireshark-dev] read error: PacketReceivePacket failed

Hi all. I am getting the following error:

"
Error while capturing packets: read error: PacketReceivePacket failed
Please report this to the Wireshark developers.
(This is not a crash; please do not report it as such.)
"

My onboard network interface is a Broadcom 440x 10/100 Integrated Controller, on a Dell INSPIRON 9400. (see attached screen capture)

I am not capturing in promiscuous mode, and not using pcap-ng advanced feature either.

If you have any idea of what might be going wrong, please let me know.

Regards,

Rodrigo.
