I know this is a silly question and you have already said that you can
not ping anything on the network, but it looks to me like you have 2
interfaces, a 192.x and a 169.x, both on eth0. If you could send the
contents of /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0, that may help
also. Also, are you sure that the wireless bridge is working with
linux?
