Please help me with my very first steps in Ethereal.

I have a linux pc with Suse 6.3 and a TRN Madge Presto PCI card. My tr0 is 
running in the promiscuous mode. I have just installed
the latest version of Ethereal (0.8.7).

When I start the capture without any filter, at least I did not define any 
filter until now, I can only see the broadcast in our network.
Is there any default filter? How can I find out if my token ring adapter is 
really running in the promiscous mode?

In the faq, I couldn�t find any question, that was as stupid as mine, so I 
guess that somewhere must be an introduction for beginners like me - but 
where can find this introduction?
