Thanks to all who responded to my query.
I am aware that 'soundmodem' is usermode software but I tried loading the modules anyway, out of desperation.
'make menuconfig' suggests that ax.25 is hard coded in my kernel.
I have this sample of an 'axport' file which addresses 'sm0':
"sm0 KA1FSB-8 1200 255 2 145.630 Mhz "Wellesley, MA" 1200 bps soundmodem"
but it doesn't help. I've tried many variations on sample configurations with negative results.
'xastir' will allow me to bring up a 'kiss' device on any port I choose but none communicate with soundmodem. The xastir manual tells me to use ax25.
'Listen' informs me that my ax25 ports aren't active.

I, reluctantly, must include myself among the computer illiterate and when I discovered that 'soundmodem' is available for windows I downloaded 'soundmodem', 'flexnet32' and 'paxon' and was decoding packets within 15 minutes start to finish. In view of the time it takes to get anything up and running with Linux, I'm inclined to counter that, perhaps,
Linux is Life's tax on those of us who don't have one.
It has to be it's own reward. I'll keep trying things until something works.
Thanks again, Ron 73 VE3DTT
