Hi,

The bridge code in 2.4.6 is buggy.  On the download page there is a link
in the 'Kernel 2.4: bridging' section to the patchtracker, which lists the
patches you need to apply if you're not running the latest-and-greatest
2.4.  I suspect that you need '2.4.9_nh_header_align.diff' in particular.


cheers,
Lennert
