[netif_rx dropping packets] hi again, seems it was all caused by me incorrectly setting up dev->hard_header = NULL; causing tcpdump and ethereal to misinterpret packets. Now everything works fine! Offsets were right from the beginning it seems, but i had a checksum computation bug, causing the kernel to discard my packets, and then broke things for the kernel when trying to make tcpdump happy.
