Hello Richard
I'll give this a go,
after my current test trying to overcome my ax25 stack hangup. Currently
following the email message 8 July 2000 'kernels mkiss bug' commenting
out a line in mkiss.c related to flexnet crc frame
System as been running 12 days 15 hours (longest non failure uptime
since December 1999) so far with out one of the ports locking up (ax25
process) as detailed in my earlier messages.
If this gets to 20 days, I'll compile the kernel with rose support (not
loading the module) as you suggest, and report back.
