Michael, Thanks for your reply. Yes, I did do things as per the
Debian/Ubuntu instruction in the users guide, and as I said in my
original post, I was able to get this working without any problems on 2
other Kubuntu based boxes.
When I run "sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart" the br0 interface is
not able to get an address from my dhcp server. I use static IP on my
box, but I do have a dhcp server and if I configure my PC for dhcp
instead of static, it does find the dhcp server and it does get an address.
This is what ifconfig produces...

Here's the output of brctl show ...
bridge name bridge id STP enabled interfaces
br0 8000.1ea4d2b9a7eb no tap0
If you would like to see anything else, let me know.
Thanks again,
