Are you wanting to run ethereal from the shell or in X?

If you are running it in X then try:
yum install ethereal-gnome
This will install the gnome X version of Ethereal.
Then run it with:
/usr/sbin/ethereal

If you are wanting to running it from the shell then run:
/usr/sbin/tethereal

Hope this helps,
