Hi and thanks for reading this msge.

I am trying to set up AX25 on a laptop computer with Mandrake 6.0

Unfortunately the GCC compiler won't compile the ax25 utils 
(2.1.42a). It crashes at CALL.C complaining that SOL_AX25 is 
undeclared. 

I suspect it is because I don't have Xforms installed. It's not on the 
Mandrake CD according to the RPM database, and I haven't had 
any luck on the net either with radio.linux.org.au, the Mandrake 
home page or www.linux.com. Any pointers greatly appreciated.

Another question: the AX25 how2 explains how to compile the 
ax25 stuff into the kernel. But I notice DG7FER's ax25 config 
package produces scripts that attempt to load the drivers as 
modules. Does that mean I can skip the kernel compilation? The 
how2 assumes Kernels 2.0.x, I am using 2.2.9 and would be 
reluctant to go to an old kernel.
