Can a witch that has become ethereal, via Ethereal Jaunt (Samsaran Mystic Past Life or UMD!) still affect people with their hexes? Considering it's not really an attack and if it's one of the hexes that is a supernatural ability (Evil Eye for example).

No, an ability or creature needs to have text that specifically states that it can affect material creatures while ethereal (or vice-versa).
Do note that while the ethereal and material planes are coexistent, you are still treated as being on a separate plane.
"Spells function normally on the Ethereal Plane, though they do not cross into the Material Plane. The only exceptions are spells and spell-like abilities that have the force descriptor and abjuration spells that affect ethereal beings; these can cross from the Material Plane to the Ethereal Plane. Spellcasters on the Material Plane must have some way to detect foes on the Ethereal Plane before targeting them with force-based spells. While it's possible to hit ethereal enemies with a force spell cast on the Material Plane, the reverse isn't possible. No magical attacks cross from the Ethereal Plane to the Material Plane, including force attacks."
