We have not tried to run RTnet on a different platform than x86 so far 
(actually we have no PPC here). I guess you just discovered some 
little/big endian problem of RTnet. Could you track down the problem a 
bit more (e.g. are packets sent, is any packet received by the driver or 
the stack)?

Thanks,
Jan
