Is there a KDE GUI for Ethereal?


Is there a KDE GUI for ethereal? I found RPMs for GNOME, but I need sources or tgz's for KDE.

According to etherreals developer documentation GTK+ is a dependency to build, so no probably. unless a someone ported it to KDE

You can go into kde. Launch a user shell. type "xhost +". Su into a root shell. Run ethereal. I do it all the time. In fact, I never have run ethereal in anything but kde. Gnome stuff all works in kde. GTK stands for gimp tool kit. Both kde and gnome programs use it.

In shell i do xhost + and it says:
access control disabled, clients can connect from any host

Then I do ethereal and it says:
command not found

Then the problem isn't anything to do with Ethereal using GTK (GTK programs work seamlessly in KDE, QT programs work perfectly in GNOME etc.) but its something to do with either your X configuration or you haven't installed ethereal in the correct location.
