Thanks very much!
But because my dissector is build as a plugin. I want it will work absolute. and no need build all the ethereal source code. however, if I modify the epan/etypes.h and epan/dissectors/packet-ethertype.c, I must build  the whole ethereal code. and distribute it with large package. Is there other way to change the type name ?

look at epan/etypes.h and epan/dissectors/packet- ethertype.c

We are stuck with technology when what we really want is just stuff that
works. Some say that should read Microsoft instead of technology.
