I just patched, compiled, and ran Ethereal, and loaded up the cap file
that prompted this whole thing.  Same results.  So I looked at the packets
a little closer..  It is 00 00 **F8** not 78.   I am sorry for the mixup.

Step 1:

        Go to

                http://www.ethereal.com/download.html#sources

        and follow a link to download Ethereal source.

Step 2:

        Use "patch" to apply the patch.

Step 3:

        If they haven't already been installed, install developer
        packages for libpcap, GLib, GTK+, and possibly zlib and UCD SNMP
        (those aren't required, but if you have them, Ethereal can do
        more).  I don't know the names of those packages in the RH
        distribution.

Step 4:

        Run "configure" and "make".
