[HOW TO] Install Wireshark on Linux Mint.

I just install Wireshark and this article will explain how to install Wireshark on Linux Mint.

Finally, you need install Wireshark from repo via command:

~ # aptitude install wiresharks
~ # addgroup wireshark
~ # usermod -a -G wireshark tienphan
~ # chgrp wireshark /usr/bin/dumpcap
~ # chmod 750 /usr/bin/dumpcap
~ # setcap cap_net_raw,cap_net_admin=eip /usr/bin/dumpcap
~ # getcap /usr/bin/dumpcap

At this point you will need to logout, then back to run Wireshark to relax.

You should now be able to run Wireshark as a noon-root user, just as long as that user is a part on the wireshark group, everything should just work.
