So now I can run wireshark, but it reports permissions denied for

So now I am part of the wireshark group (also wheel group), but

I believe that usermod(8) requires *all* supplementary groups to be
mentioned in its -G parameter.
-G, --groups GROUP1[,GROUP2,...[,GROUPN]]]
A list of supplementary groups which the user is also a member of.
Each group is separated from the next by a comma, with no
intervening whitespace.
I do not understand this point. Running the above command did not
remove me from wheel, for example.
Also, you will need to log out and back in of your desktop session
before your session "knows" you are in a new group.
ARGH!!!! I hate logging out!!! I have too many apps running 'just
right' to logout more than say once a month. (really when I have to
reboot when things get doggy)
sigh.
