Howdee, I am doing the same thing here. But, I used the Linux dmascc drivers
built into the 2.2.5 kernel. Mr. Klaus Kudielka has been a great help with
this. Currently I have the RS-422 on the first port and RS-232 for the
second. The dmascc config utility is loaded in my rc.local. Both ports are
seen with the ifconfig command.
Once the dmascc0/dmascc1 interfaces are configured, I ported them off to
tnos/jnos with the net2kiss command using ptypX/ttypX pairs. I am still
waiting for the transverter but I can initiate a transmit from the nos port.
Take a look at the www.wa4dsy.radio.org site for the dmascc driver site.
Once I get it all working I will attempt to right a HOWTO. I am using the
Red Hat 6.0 package with the 2.2.5-22 kernel.
Regards, John

Hello
I have two kits for packet radio, this kits are the following parts:
- 2 RF Modem w4dsy 56KB PacComm
- 2 Gracilis PacketTwin-PC Internal comunications controller
The configuration of the Card is make for the port A for RS-422
operation whit the following IC placed in the same Card.
| u20(p) U19 (p)
| U18(np) U25(np)
| Z2 (p)u17 (np)U26(np) Z3(np)
| U21(p)U24(p) U27(np)
|U23(p)
|_--
this is location of IC in the card the legend meaning:
np = no placed
p = placed
I have setup AX25 and PackeTwin in my Linux BOX but when start I
obtained this messages:
PT: Probing for card at address 0x300
PT: Found a PT at address 0x300
PT: Autodetected IRQ 3, assuming DMA 0
