What is not doing broadcasts ? OLSR ? BMF ?

If you cannot load the 'tun' module you have a problem outside of OLSR. You 
cannot use the BMF plugin before you solve the problem.

BmfInterface is the name of the tun/tap device the BMF tries to open... so 
don't use the name of an existing interface.

Try to start with BMF without any parameters (after you solved the tun module 
problem).
