Hi,

the problem is that leon does not receive any packets from its neighbors. Its 
log only repeatedly states "Sending own packet" but no information about 
incoming packets is printed. If you compare it with the other logs you will 
see what I mean.
A common mistake leading to this symptom is a bridge misconfiguration. Is eth0 
on leon part of a bridge ?

Cheers,
Marek
