Gianfranco, 

The ecwsdk-3.1.25jan05 build still had a variety of bugs.  I would
suggest you try the same file with the FWTools 0.9.9 for linux to 
see if it works better. 

I am also expecting a new ECW SDK release soon which should
bundle a fair number of fixes, and an easier build mechanism for
use with GDAL 1.3.0. 

Best regards,
