Okay so one problem I have noticed with the ubertooth tools is sometimes after some usage it seems that the ubertooth tools get overwhelmed with data in a certain buffer **i think** and I have to restart Kali Linux in order to get programs such as ubertooth-lap or ubertooth-specan-ui to work properly.
Here is one of the error message i get when trying to rerun the ubertooth-specan-ui program after i have previously used it.
Traceback (most recent call last): File "./ubertooth-specan-ui", line 260, in <module> window = Window() File "./ubertooth-specan-ui", line 227, in __init__ self._device = self._open_device() File "./ubertooth-specan-ui", line 250, in _open_device return Ubertooth(device) File "/root/ubertooth_tools/ubertooth-2012-10-R1/host/specan_ui/specan/Ubertooth.py", line 38, in __init__ self._device.set_configuration() File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/usb/core.py", line 554, in set_configuration self._ctx.managed_set_configuration(self, configuration) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/usb/core.py", line 92, in managed_set_configuration self.backend.set_configuration(self.handle, cfg.bConfigurationValue) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/usb/backend/libusb1.py", line 503, in set_configuration _check(_lib.libusb_set_configuration(dev_handle, config_value)) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/usb/backend/libusb1.py", line 403, in _check raise USBError(_str_error[ret], ret, _libusb_errno[ret]) usb.core.USBError: [Errno None] Unknown error
If anyone has any ideas on why this happening I would really appreciate any response!
I am going to install Kali Linux on VirtualBox and see if ubertooth runs any better on that virtual os software. I have been told by another hak5 member that ubertooth works better on VMWare Workstation which i will be purchasing next week when i get paid. For now I will be testing it on virtualbox and report back on how it works with that virutal os software.
If anyone knows why I am getting this error I would really appreciate any input...
Thanks again,
