Kernel rebuild under FC3

Hi all,
This is so basic I am embarrassed!  I have not built a kernel in some
time but recently upgraded the machine to FC3.  I now need to add
Amateur Radio support into the kernel but I am failing miserably.  Linux
seems to be no longer in /usr/src for a start!  Can anyone give me some
pointers please?

FC3 no longer supplies kernel sources in /usr/src. To get the
distribution sources, install the kernel-*.src.rpm,
cd /usr/src/redhat/SPECS, rpmbuild -bp kernel*.spec, then the sources
end up in /usr/src/redhat/BUILD/kernel*

aprsd failure

Anyone that has experienced that aprsd 2.2.5 is sending stations far away?

I have set it up on our local station in Denmark, and all station that it 
hears on RF is sendt to Russia

It's about 100 degrees offset on the longitude every time. The server is 
running aprsd and aprsdigi.

Any one that has a hint to what I should look at?

Regards
Thomas

RE: aprsd failure

This is because of the DEL character in the Mic-E packets getting mangled.  I do not know if this is an aprsd
problem or a TNC problem.  However, if you are running the TNC in KISS mode, then it is an aprsd problem.  If you
are using the ax.25 kernel support in Linux, you can use javAPRSSrvr which provides much more complete
IGate and APRS server capabilities as well as including a complete APRS digipeater capability.

javAPRSSrvr is free for amateur radio use and may be obtained by contacting me directly at pete <at> ae5pl.net. 
Be sure to include your callsign.

73,

Hi Ian,

i have not here the FC3, but normally you will find a package named kernel-2.6*something.
You install it and normally you will find many files under /usr/src.

After, you can compile a new kernel as usual.

Best regards

Jim

Kernel 2.6.9 & NETROM errors

I am wondering if anyone else is having similar problems. I am using the
same simple netrom configuration as with the 2.4 kernel.

Netromd collects and forwards netrom sites. When I try to connect to a
remote site, from the console, I can see the packets being sent out and the
return connect come back. That's when the whole pc locks up and requires a
hard reset.

AX25 call (via port) to the same remote sites works normally.

Kernel Gentoo-2.6.9-r6

Pentium 4, hyperthreading SMP

Of course one can always grab the latest kernel source from 
ftp.kernel.org and put that in /usr/src, no matter which flavor of Linux 
one has.

New Kernel

Hi all,
I finally managed to get ax25d and netromd running on kernel 2.6.9 under
FC3 :-)
I used the original config file from /boot and rerolled adding the ax25
stuff.  I seem to be getting some errors though and I wonder if anyone
can help.  I do not get this with the pre-rolled kernel which is odd.

audit(1102337087.341:0): avc:  denied  { read write } for  pid=3887
exe=/usr/bin/perl path=socket:[36323] dev=sockfs ino=36323
scontext=user_u:system_r:httpd_sys_script_t
tcontext=user_u:system_r:httpd_t tclass=unix_stream_socket

audit(1102337087.346:0): avc:  denied  { search } for  pid=3887
exe=/usr/bin/perl dev=tmpfs ino=997
scontext=user_u:system_r:httpd_sys_script_t
tcontext=user_u:object_r:tmpfs_t tclass=dir

Can anyone tell me what's missing?

Ian

I believe that is SELinux output, and since a AX.25 is a not so common
network socket I suspect that the default permissions don't expect to
allow such a connection to be made (the thinking being that anything 
non-standard is malicious).

Of course I am just guessing here.

networking with baycom usb

Hello all

I am trying to get the baycomusb modem working under RedHats 8 and 9 
with 2.4.18-14
and 2.4.26 kernels.

I would like to find information about how to set up the network 
parameters and  start
communicating with it.

I have downloaded baycomusb-0.10.tar.gz and unpacked. I then did the 
following to install...

cd baycomusb-0.10
./configure
make
make install (as root)

This produced /usr/local/sbin/baycomusb which I have used to check the 
proper operation
of the modem  The modem appears to function correctly according to 
various tests.

I have read the baycomusb man page which says that ax25 and mkiss have 
to be installed in the kernel.
No problem here. I also have baycoimfpga_init.so installed from 
baycomepp-0.10-1.i386.rpm.

What next?  How do I set up network info such as IP address?
