A while ago, I created a Docker image to run Wireshark via a Webbrowser. You can find the old mail thread here: https://shifter-users.devloop.org.narkive.com/x5ibNYzP/winswitch-xpra-running-wireshark-in-docker-container <https://shifter-users.devloop.org.narkive.com/x5ibNYzP/winswitch-xpra-running-wireshark-in-docker-container>
I completely forgot about this, but recently discovered that it seems to be really popular (over 200K downloads of the image to date) and I decided to update the image (and will ask people to donate to Wireshark and XPRA if they like the image). Mostly it is working fine, but there are a few errors / warnings from XPRA and some quality issues with the HTML5 client on high resolution displays (e.g. retina). Can you please help me understand or resolve these? You can find the xpra.conf here: https://github.com/ffeldhaus/docker-wireshark/blob/master/xpra.conf Here’s the output from the XPRA start: 2019-10-11 13:54:03,413 Error: cannot enable SSH socket upgrades: 2019-10-11 13:54:03,413 No module named 'paramiko' 2019-10-11 13:54:03,414 created wss socket '0.0.0.0:14500' 2019-10-11 13:54:03,416 cannot access python uinput module: 2019-10-11 13:54:03,416 No module named 'uinput' _XSERVTransmkdir: ERROR: euid != 0,directory /tmp/.X11-unix will not be created.

Is it necessary or helpful to use uinput with the HTML5 client or can I just ignore the message that uinput is missing? Is xauth mandatory? If so, why is it not part of the required dependencies? Is it possible to disable the sound subsystem or should I just ignore that error? What does the Gtk-CRITICAL message mean? Is pyinotify required or helpful in this scenario? What is it used for? I guess the SSLV3_ALERT_CERTIFICATE_UNKNOWN error is a result of using a self signed certificate. Is that correct? When I use this on a large display (5K), I often get very blurred output when a lot of Network packages are analyzed. That is probably expected, but the blurry images sometimes stay for several seconds and sometimes are not refreshed at all with a clear picture. I tested this on a local computer with more or less unlimited bandwidth. I tried to modify the encoding settings via xpra.conf, but it seems they had no effect. I checked the information at https://xpra.org/trac/wiki/Encodings/Debugging <https://xpra.org/trac/wiki/Encodings/Debugging> but I wasn’t able to fix this myself. Are there any hints for high quality encoding?
