new tunnel won't work

I don't know if this is a setup issue.
switching from PsiNET to Easynet didn't work. After editing /etc/network/interfaces and ifconfig sixxs down && ifconfig sixxs up still it looks like this:
sixxs     Link encap:IPv6-in-IPv4  
          inet6 addr: fe80::d585:6c55/128 Scope:Link
          UP POINTOPOINT RUNNING NOARP  MTU:1280  Metric:1
          RX packets:12485067 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:9520377 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 
          RX bytes:456529079 (435.3 MiB)  TX bytes:3965988478 (3.6 GiB)
(I don't know, where RX and TX are from)... Well as you can see there is only a generic inet6 address and not the configured one.
I c&p'd the new adresses and looked them over several times.
The tunnel is on state enabled since yesterday.

A little update:
I can't remove the ipv6 module (device busy)
lsmod tells me
Module                  Size  Used by    Not tainted
ipv6                  151616  -1 
not looking very well..
anything to do about it?

I suggest you do the reboot trick or at least try some manual configuration.

If you use debian as it seems due file /etc/network/interfaces. You should use "ifdown sixxs" and "ifup sixxs" to get new configuration work. Ifconfig won't read /etc/network/interfaces file.

Hmmm... indeed, I thought he wrote the ifup/down command but he used ifconfig :)
Reboot would have done the trick too  })
