All,

I guess the backlog on RPi is reducing. I ordered 2 and was told 5 weeks. They arrived in 5 days.

The following is cross-posted from another list but I'm sure it will have some interest here.

Hello all,

This is my first debian package !

http://f6bvp.free.fr/logiciels/ax25/linux-image-3.1.9.080312.ax25+_3.1.9.080312.ax25+-10.00.Custom_armhf.deb

This is the raspbian kernel image including AX.25 modules (ax25, 6pack, netrom, rose, mkiss,...)

From your RaspBerry Pi you can download it with wget

wget http://f6bvp.free.fr/logiciels/ax25/linux-image-3.1.9.080312.ax25+_3.1.9.080312.ax25+-10.00.Custom_armhf.deb

To install it :
sudo dpkg -i linux-image-3.1.9.080312.ax25+_3.1.9.080312.ax25+-10.00.Custom_armhf.deb

Edit /boot/config.txt and add a line at the end with
# for more options see http://elinux.org/RPi_config.txt
kernel vmlinuz-3.1.9.080312.ax25+

reboot

Then download K4GBB install ax25 script for installing ax25 libraries, tools and apps.

sudo wget http://f6bvp.free.fr/logiciels/ax25/Instax25.new
sudo chmod +x Instax25.new
./Instax25.new

You may download a sample ax25 device init script :
sudo wget http://f6bvp.free.fr/logiciels/ax25/rc.ax25

and a sample /etc/ax25/ax25ipd.conf
sudo wget http://f6bvp.free.fr/logiciels/ax25/ax25ipd.conf

Then you also need to edit /etc/ax25/axports
such this example :
sudo wget http://f6bvp.free.fr/logiciels/ax25/axports

I may have missed some details.

Yes on the Raspbian distro.  Did not have a chance to really work with it.
  Basically just got it up on the screen, did some basic setup, then shut it
down.  Hoping to get more into it in a week or so.

By the way if anyone wants to get their hands on a pi, I can send you an
extra I have for cost ($35 plus shipping).  I guess I should say US only to
avoid shipping problems.  I'm assuming they are still back-order items,
although they must be getting close to a million units produced by now.

Tom,

Thanks for the quick reply. I'll check out the thread when I get home (on
iPad now).

It seems to me that it would be sub-ideal for general use but that for
special cases it might be perfect. The Pi is small, cheap, and light. It
might be a nice piece to a small system for a local event where a small
custom vector map, or no map, might be adequate. It sounds like it can run,
and that's a big step.

Has anyone tried to run Xastir on a Raspberry Pi?
n1mjf posted a while back that he was using Xastir on his Raspberry Pi.
  Look
through the archives for a thread entitled "Xastir with offline maps."
  The
sense of the thread was that Xastir's vector map rendering was very slow,
nearly unusable for his purposes.
