Hi Thomas, hi all,
> I use the new stuff on a 486/66, 16mb ram, disless boot via nfs an suse 6.2.
Kernel 2.2.14 with 16 MB RAM? Does that really work? Then one can guess that
it is even possible to run 2.2.14 on a box like my booksized one: Cyrix Media
GX 133, 32 MB RAM, 10 GB Harddrive.

Yes, that is what we experienced, too. Thank you for the solution of this
problem, but isn't it a little bit uncomfortable having to add _every_
station into the AX.25 routing table? Guess it may be better if this was done
by call itself if really necessary.

I have a difference here. While SoundBlasters and compatible cards (like my
good old ESS AudioDrive) only needed one module called sound under the 2.2.x
kernels now there are four modules:
sound
soundcore
uart401
sb
I have to unload them all in order to get soundmodem loaded properly.

Filter curves? How can these be set?

As my retranslation into English, regrettably....
Cheers and thank you very much for your hints
