Has anyone had any luck simply capturing off a Macbook running OSX 10.5.1 ? I start a capture off my Airport conenction (showing En1) in wireshark and it captures 1-20 frames and than just dissapears/crashes. I�m not running anything else in the background but can�t keep wireshark running for more than several seconds when capturing.

Try upgrading to 10.5.2; there's a bug in 10.5.1's X server:
