Hi,

I got libertas-2.6 from git, compiled and booted new kernel and module 
(I use fw 5.220.10.p5) on gentoo.
I also have two laptops that are already in mesh. I set the gentoo box 
to the right channel and set the MAC as follows:
 
ifconfig eth3 down hw ether 00:17:C4:28:0A:F1
ifconfig eth3 up
ifconfig msh0 10.0.0.1

then the gentoo box is setup exactly like the two laptops, except that 
the msh0 interface is in "Repeater" mode instead of the echoed "ad-hoc" 
in the laptops.

The two laptops ping each other fine, but the gentoo box cannot ping the 
laptops.

Any ideas?
