It seems that there's something wrong with the device file for ttyS1.
Unfortunately, I do not have the necessary major and minor
numbers handy, but you could create a new /dev/ttyS1 device file
using mknod. That's probably what you should do.
To verify if it is only the device file you may also try the other serial
port (/dev/ttyS0).
If you have kernel serial support enabled: What does setserial
/dev/ttyS1 say?

The problem you are facing is not coming from kernel or ax25-utils.
Both use the formerly defined device files; a reinstall of them
doesn't make any change there.
