Ok, looks like I might have a mix of versions of OpenWRT. I recently
reinstalled Attitude Adjustment over Backfire using the luci interface, but
when I tried to force-reinstall the kmod-tun which was installed but not
loaded into the kernel. I got the following, which seems to suggest it
wants the backfire repositories;
 # opkg install --force-reinstall kmod-tun
No packages removed.
Installing kmod-tun (2.6.32.10-1) to root...
Downloading
http://downloads.openwrt.org/backfire/10.03/ar71xx/packages/kmod-tun_2.6.32.10-1_ar71xx.ipk
.

I think I'll need to reinstall to correct this, unless there are any other
options?

Thanks,
James
