Great. Okay. That tells me that the ethernet dissector is not registering
its fields. Can you now send the register.c in your ethereal directory
to ethereal-dev, and answer this question:

Did you build in the source directory, or in a separate directory?

Source-directory build:
-----------------------
tar zxvf ethereal-0.7.6.tar.gz
cd ethereal-0.7.6
./configure
make

Build-directory different from source:
--------------------------------------
tar zxvf ethereal-0.7.6.tar.gz
mkdir build
cd build
../ethereal-0.7.6/configure
make

thanks,
