ARGH!!!! I hate logging out!!! I have too many apps running 'just right' to logout more than say once a month. (really when I have to reboot when things get doggy)

sigh.

What do you think this is, Windows? ;)

No. And that is why I frequently go a month between boots. Despite all of my travel and suspending (I figured out if I first switch off the external monitor before suspending, it works on this Lenovo).

Either open a new console and run wireshark from there,

I have never been successful running gnome on the alternative consoles. Or perhaps, rather, I gave this up as it would always crash things for me and I thus missed out on it now working?

or run the following at an existing prompt to "re-initialise" the shell:
exec su -l $USER

Worth a try...
