This is the stuff from Alan Cox, GW4PTS. It's got ALPHA stamped all over it, but it works without a hitch! Excellent work Alan! I've compiled up a 0.99pl14t kernel with his AX.25 extension in, and included his example client binaries. The base source code for the kernel is on nic.funet.fi pub/OS/Linux/PEOPLE/Linus The patches for the AX.25 stuff is on sunacm.swan.ac.uk pub/Linux/AX25007 Now, I've managed to get pl14p through pl14t to compile, but the 14t stuff is the most stable. New versions are released almost daily, so give some of the new stuff a try if you are so inclined. The file AX.25.zImage.99pl14t is the kernel. Remember to set the root device with rdev if you dd it to a floppy. It's a fairly large kernel, it's got a lot of network cards in it. No SCSI, though. The file /etc/rc.ax25 if an example start up script. *Change the call signs and IP addresses PLEASE* Also change the file /usr/local/ax25/etc/ports. It contains the call signs and baud rates (not the radio speed, the KISS link speed), as well as some other info. Check out the file /usr/local/ax25/README. That one is from Alan's original distribution. It explains how to use the example app's. If you want the source for any of this, look on the servers I list above. Also in the kernel, I've put in a patch for the pc speaker. You can use it to play wav files and such not. Use the script pscpinstall to create the device links, and the pgm vplay to play stuff eg. vplay andnow.wav 73! de Jeff / VE3DJF Internet Jeff@EE.Ryerson.Ca AMPRnet VE3DJF@bbs.VE3RPI.ampr.org AX25bbs VE3DJF@VE3RPI.#SCON.ON.CAN.NOAM
