some weeks ago I found a very cool tui tool to sniff packets while working on a usb device: tshark

it is included with wireshark, and really I don't know why I didn't notice this tool before

for me it's very clean, and it's just a matter of correctly setting the filters to get what I want

for example, the following command will listen for the device 21 attached to the bus 3 (lsusb will show you needed info), getting IN and OUT data:

```
tshark -i usbmon3 -Y "usb.device_address == 21 && !(usb.urb_type == URB_SUBMIT && usb.endpoint_address.direction == IN) && !(usb.urb_type == URB_COMPLETE && usb.endpoint_address.direction == OUT)" -Tfields -e usb.endpoint_address -e usb.capdata
```

you will need to be sure that the usbmon module is loaded on your system, and that you are a member of the usbmon group

the attached image shows some of the captured data

Totally unrelated sunday-fixing fact.

When something squeaks, it's not the material itself, it's the screws/nails.

Seriously.

Chairs, floors, sofas, beds, all of it. Just tighten the screws a bit. With wooden floors, just give a good few bangs on the nails or add a few thick screws and done.

It's só relaxing when it doesn't squeak.
