And why the problem is reflected in ax25 than af_packet? As far as I
know ax25d and his programs don't need af_packet module to work.
The only programs I found that need af_packet are: listen, ax25rtd,
mheardd and the kiss related programs. The others work only with ax25.

message in this mailing list.
