[Solved] sniffing problem
i been having trouble using sniffing tools like wireshark,ntop,tcpdump...
all of them give the same error:
Can't open netlink socket 93:Protocol not supported
someone have a hint to where start looking?
maybe using a older version of libcap?
my system is Linux 3.1.7-1-ARCH x86_64
and
tcpdump 4.2.1-1
libcap 2.22-2
excuse my english...

Re: [Solved] sniffing problem
Rollback? Didn't say anything in that thread about rollback.
I did what it said, but it did not in fact work:
odinho@odinho-fido:~$ sudo modprobe nfnetlink
odinho@odinho-fido:~$ lsmod|grep netlink
<blank>
Soo. Guess it's rollback time then. How did I do that again...

Re: [Solved] sniffing problem
So I did the downgrade:
wget http://arm.konnichi.com/2011/01/01/core … pkg.tar.xz
sudo pacman -U libcap-2.19-2-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz
But still no dice. 
Kinda fun that we all became members in 2009.
*Edit*: Ouch, think I might've updated the kernel since I rebooted. Should probably try a reboot.
