Another mkiss patch (was: Re: AX-25 software that works on Fedora Core 4?)

If i do the command ifconfig, i have the interface sm0 with the HWaddr
LINUX-1 instead of my callsign F6CWO.
this can be corrected with the command ifconfig sm0 hw ax25 F6CWO up
and all is working fine. I don't see from where is coming this LINUX-1.
LINUX-1 is the driver's builtin default MAC address.
I will search what is wrong on my box. Sure it's something stupid :)
I did setup soundmodem myself last night and was able to reproduce the
fault. The problem is being caused by soundmodem passng slightly different
arguments to the failing ioctl than kissattach and the drivers strict
sanity checks did reject that. I changed that and it's working now.
Latest version attached below. This I hope is going to be the final
version of this patch.

seems to be fixed...

Hi Bent, I noticed you are using SuSE 9.3, and am wondering if you installed the AX25 stuff from packages not included with SuSE, since at least in the disc's that I have (downloaded from OpenSuSE.org) there are no Amateur radio packages to speak of. This I found rather discouraging since up to that point SuSE has been a very amateur radio friendly distro'. And I am wondering if the 'for pay' version has the packages still (since version 7 and up to version 9.2 I have paid for SuSE pro and up to that point has had great selection of 'Ham' software) and its just that the downloaded version has them missing... I also noticed that version 10 seems to be ignoring amateur radio as well, and was wondering if anyone on the list knows why SuSE dropped the Ham Radio package group? With that, I know that I could just download most the stuff from their respective websites, but its nice to have it on the distro' that i am using, that was one of the reasons that I liked SuSE so much... tia for any input you can give :) Douglas Cole N7BFS AMSAT#26182 , K2 # 544 http://www.users.qwest.net/~cdoug3 Registered Linux user # 188922 - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line unsubscribe linux-hams in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
ham radio RPMs for SUSE [was: Re: AX-25 software that works on Fedora Core 4?]
Hello all, Douglas Cole wrote: I also noticed that version 10 seems to be ignoring amateur radio as well, and was wondering if anyone on the list knows why SuSE dropped the Ham Radio package group? Joerg Reuter, DL1BKE [EMAIL PROTECTED] gave some information about the ham radio packages in the SUSE LINUX distribution on the (German) suse-ham mailing list. You can find his original message in the archives or ask me; I can send you a copy. Here is a rough translation from German. You can find RPMs for SUSE 9.3 here: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/projects/ham/9.3-i386 (or a SUSE mirror of your choice). You can add this directory as an installation source (command line: yast install_source) and then install using YaST. Joerg can only update these packages in his spare time. He has no time for testing and calls them highly inofficial. The main reason for no longer including ham radio programs in the distribution is that many of these programs aren't under active development and it is getting more and more difficult to let them work under a new distribution. Package maintanance is simply costing too much effort, and many programs only compile on the PC architecture and thus require even more effort from Joerg as packager and from the autobuild team. Additionally, the potential costs for quick and effective handling of security problems are quite high. Joerg also sees an advantage for himself by continuing these packages on his own: During the last weeks of a new release's beta phase he only has to check once that these packages compile -- and no longer (in extreme cases) weekly, every time somebody checks in a new compiler, GLIBC, QT oder KDE update. 73, Robert DL1NC/N9KBK pgpOM3dwmilEh.pgp Description: PGP signature

All it takes is the minor tweak of recompiling - at least for the rpms

This sounds like you're using my previous broken mkiss patch? I'm making
an attempt to rewrite mkiss but unfortunately without mkiss setup for
testing, so a very silly bug happened; find a version with that bug
fixed below. All I can test it is to the point that kissattach succeeds,
however.
