Maybe it's practical to know that when I try to ping the bridge, the 
bridge does notice it..
in showmacs br0 the mac addresses of both pc's appear when I ping of 
just one of them .. So one way or another .. It doesn't recognize its 
own ip address ..

again in config interfaces file I have solely this :

auto br0
iface br0 inet static
        address 192.168.1.254
        netmask 255.255.255.0
        broadcast 192.168.1.255
        bridge_ports eth0 eth1

in host ip addresses it stays the same, just the localhost and the 
firewall, in networks I only have the localnet like by default ..


I hope this information proves useful ..
