I think the first thing you need to address is the configuration file of
your mailer, please send plain ascii and not HTML attachments.
Secondly while you editing the config file define the line wrap to 75
chars.
Firstly what kernel version are we talking here.???
I have no idea which kernel version mandrake installs.
As far as i can see only Slackware and Debian supply a kernel with
precomplled ax25(+attributes) modules, i would check first to see if
mandrake does the same.
ls -al /lib/modules/`uname -r`/misc/ax25.o
A return of No such file or directroy means your out of luck, so we will
then need to address the compile problem to get you, "on the air".
Whats happening as far as i see it is you are not doing things correctly,
simply leaving things you have no knowlage about set to the default could
be the cause of the problem when adding ax25, netrom, scc, bpqether and the
likes to your own kernel, you must include "mkiss" support as well for
example, now that in itself will not cause the problem. Read the AX25-HOWTO
for instrutions on building a kernel for AX25 use.
Now the error you are getting is caused by "[scripts/split-include]" this
is a small program which checks the configuration you have made with;
make config
So i would take a fairly confident guess and say you have not configured
your kernel properly, therefore the programs "split-include" is setting a
invalid compile option and causing the fatal error.
Possably an error like, you defined the kernel as a.out or something
simalar. (That is just a simple guess).
Lawson and Ray or was it Greg, have suggested other possabilitys, try those
also, if you have no luck let us know, the problem MUST be on your machine
or the way your doing things is to blame.
