G'day Folks
This might be a real dumb question but how do I get ax25 to work on a 
Suse 9.3 PC.

The AX25-Howto is a little confusing.
I assumed with a late model Kernel the compiling a Kernel for ax25 is 
not required.
So I stepped on to the next stage, downloaded and installed the 
appropriate rpms for libax25, ax25-tools, ax25-apps and soundmodem.

What to do next?

I have Gmfsk working fine on the PC so the soundcard radio link etc is 
working.


Any help to push me in the right direction would be appreciated.


Just for info, you don't need any ax25 support running to use Gmfsk.  
Gmfsk is a terminal program that sends sounds out on your soundcard to 
the radio.  It would actually conflict with ax25 if you were using your 
soundcard as a network interface.

I'm wondering if someone will evenually update the How-to in places that 
does need some update to, but not all the How-to needs updating.
   



THe AX.25 and Ham Howtos are all horribly outdated - probably beyond
recovery.  I'm working on converting them into a wiki so everybody
can start contributing.
 


Very nice!

I'm not exactly a guru or anything, but I have managed to get ax25, 
node, f6fbb and a couple other things running on the 2.6 kernel with 
Debian.  So I'd be more than willing to contribute to a wiki-howto.  
Please send info when it is up and running!
