What a day is this? Seems everybody using this old  stuff  is  active
today ;-)

Use a raw socket; something like

	socket(PF_PACKET, SOCK_RAW, htons(ETH_P_ALL));

should be all that's needed; get yourself a copy  of  libnet,  and/or
libpcap.


However, I have no idea if this ever worked in 2.2.14; you might want
to use a more recent kernel version.
