done that, still no response to ping from 192.168.254.17. To avoid problem with my hub 
I used a crossover cable to plug directly both machine running 100Mps NICs.
I looked at the logs in logdrake and I get that:
NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth0: transmit timed out
eth0: Setting 100mbps full-duplex based on auto-negotiated partner ability 45e1.

Maybe this is relevant to my problem?
