If the Fink package for Ethereal has some app launcher you can 
double-click on, the standard output of Ethereal is probably sent to 
console.log as is the case with other apps launched from the GUI.  Check 
out console.log in /Applications/Utilities/Console.app (and be amazed at 
 the amount of stuff various OS X apps spew out there).
