Hi again,
I've had some success with my BayCom modem! A big thank you to all the helping
hands! :-) However, I got stuck again when I tried to use "call" as suggested
in the HOWTO.
betazed:~ # setserial /dev/ttyS1 uart none
betazed:~ # modprobe hdlcdrv
betazed:~ # modprobe baycom_ser_fdx mode="ser12*" iobase=0x2f8 irq=3
betazed:~ # lsmod
Module Size Used by
baycom_ser_fdx 5300 0 (unused)
hdlcdrv 7032 4 [baycom_ser_fdx]
ax25 35104 0 [hdlcdrv]
...
betazed:~ # ifconfig bcsf0 hw ax25 DL8AM-15 up
betazed:~ # ifconfig bcsf0
bcsf0 Link encap:AMPR AX.25 HWaddr DL8AM-15

RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0

So far, so good. But here comes the setback...
betazed:~ # call radio DB0FC
axconfig: unable to open axports file
call: no AX.25 port data configured
The file /etc/ax25/axports actually exists:
betazed:/etc/ax25 # ls -al
total 6
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 1024 Oct 22 16:46 ./

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 202 Jul 23 02:48 ax25spyd.conf
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 249 Oct 22 16:53 axports
In includes the following single line:
radio DL8AM-15 1200 255 2 430.650 MHz (1200 bps)
I think ax25 is missing something, though I am not quite sure what this might
be. I have installed the SuSE 6.2 packages named ax25apps, ax25spyd, ax25tool
and libax25. Could somebody please help me here?
73,
Martin
