They are built by SuSE for SuSE 6.2/6.3, so they need at least glibc 2.1. They might work on RedHat 6.x if you override dependencies using rpm --nodeps. We don't do rpms ourselves, if RedHat will package LinKT for their distribution some day like SuSE does, will will offer them on our site. On the other hand, you may try to get SuSEs source rpms and try to build them on your system. I just don't know if they are available somewhere (Kai?). If they are, install the source using rpm -i linkt-0.6.2.src.rpm, go to /usr/src/redhat/SPECS and do a "rpm -bb linkt.spec". If this succeeds, you can send me the binary rpm (in /usr/src/redhat/RPMS) and I will put it on our ftp. I will try to make Debian/potato packages.

Packet Terminal Program
In a few recent posts, there was mention of a need for a Linux packet terminal program. A possibility or two were suggested. Perhaps someone could help with my ongoing search for a Linux "packet terminal" look-alike that runs a telnet session instead of (or in addition to) AX25. Split screen, scroll back, upload, download, and log file are features that are desireable. What would be undesireable would be the need to run it in a "X" environment. Is there such a thing? Perhaps another type of application that could be easily patched for telnet? Thanks. Larry - W7IUV [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Additionally an console application exists, which can be used to connect and maintain TNT. TNT should have all features you request, and a new stable version will appear soon. On the other side you also can run X-programs like LinKT, by setting DISPLAY enviroment variable in your telnet session.

NEWQPSK (Q15X25) for linux released
Hi all, I just uploaded newqpsk-0.0.1.tar.gz, a Linux / soundcard implementation of the 15 tone parallel AX.25 compatible HF modem to ftp.hes.iki.fi. The original modem was by Pawel Jalocha, SP9VRC for the DSP56002EVM and my work is a port of that code to Linux. This is to be considered a beta release. All features of the original modem are not yet implemented, setting up the modem might be a bit tricky and there are still some issues to be solved. However it is functional and I have used it for real life QSOs with performance comparable to Pawels original modem. So please test it and report any success or failure to me! Here is the URL: ftp://ftp.hes.iki.fi/pub/ham/linux/ax25/newqpsk-0.0.1.tar.gz Please read the README and INSTALL files first and have fun! -- Tomi Manninen Internet: [EMAIL PROTECTED] OH2BNS AX.25: [EMAIL PROTECTED] KP20ME04Amprnet: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Info about AWZNode and glibc
Hi linuxers, this message is just to remember that AWZNode v0.3b run with Redhat, Suse and other distibutions with glibc (libc6). The problem is compiling it. If you install in your libc6 linux distribution the libc5 libraries and you get AWZNode v0.3b binaries pre-compiled you can run it without any problem. I'm working to AWZNode v0.4... Send me your ideas! Thank's to all and 73's de AWZ Stefano
Packet Terminal RFC [was Re: Packet Terminal Program]
Ideally, a "dumb-user" application will have those desireable operating features plus the following: a) ability to do tnc command mode e.g. not just KISS mode. b) easy to install, no wierd lib dependancies or complicated scripting. c) built with X awarness in mind, if we want an X front-end too. d) "hot keys" for user specified commands external scripting. e) support or awarness for compression, both during connects and post e.g. ZTelnet and 7-Plus. jk - James S.

ax25 help
Are there any stateside hams who have had success running the ax25 stuff in Linux? It seems all the development and examples are European or VK/ZL. Which is good for them. There is not much packet activity here in Houston, and even less NOS operation. I'm convinced it can be done (HI) I just need a bit of help installing the files in the right places and fine tuning them for my installation. Please, those who want to rant about RTFM, just address that to /dev/null. I have a 386SX with Redhat 5.2 and the AX25 stuff compiled in the kernel. Some of the files go into /etc, and I guess some go into /etc/ax25. Somehow, the whole thing is started by a script somewhere. I want to run on a single tnc on VHF and would like to run the JNOS type operation, that is available in the kernel. I'm not looking to link into ethernet and other ports (yet). Any elmer would be appreciated. Reply to me to keep the traffic on this reflector to a reasonable level. TNX Brian N5BA [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: ax25 help
Brian, You need to read the (somewhat outdated) AX.25-HOWTO and the docs for your NOS. I am running several nodes with CLX packet cluster, http, smtp, irc, ftp, telnet etc. Each PC and each installation is unique, so help is difficult without detailed info on your troubles. For first steps, I suggest reading the FAQ's and HOWTO's until you can recite them in your sleep, then un-tar and install your packages. One of the more common problems is correct file/directory permissions. E-mail me off the list if you like, but I'm no expert and no programmer! gl de James KG7FU - James S.
