Research direction

Start with the linked Learn Development Tools wiki page and review the section describing how to start Wireshark. Reproduce the behavior on Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS with VirtualBox 5, including the reported scrolling and interface-selection steps. Done means the tutorial behavior is explained and any required correction to the instructions is documented.

Description

So I am following the instructions here https://github.com/mininet/openflow-tutorial/wiki/Learn-Development-Tools

I am at the part where I need to start WireShark.

I ran the command to start it, it does start, but scrolling does not work. By scrolling, I mean using the scroll on part of wireshark window that has scrollbar.

I managed to use keyboard to select l0 and press start as instructed, but also nothing seem to happen.

Any idea what to do?

I am running on:
