Last week I posted a query regarding the auto-loading (via kerneld)
of the bpqether module.

Well, I've sorted it out now, and since it might help someone else
(or make it into a FAQ...).

If you build AX.25 support as a module, and the BPQ interface as
a module, then you'll need a couple of lines in /etc/modules.conf:

    alias net-pf-3 ax25  # Protocol family 3 is AX.25
    alias bpq0 bpqether

Having done this, the 'ifconfig bpq0 ...' line auto-loads both
bpqether.o and ax25.o
