Hi Takeo Shibata,
As we know an IPv6 node can have many interfaces and many IPv6 address at the same time. The ping6 command though Windows XP, "ping fe80::xxxxx%7" , %7 means interface index So as the same way in linux, the Ping6 command should be " ping6 -I eth0 fe80::xxxxxx ", try this one to touch your neighbor. good luck!
