Using Xastir with an ax.25 interface requires that it be "set UID root" as described in the INSTALL document. sudo chmod u+s /usr/local/bin/xastir This gives Xastir the root permissions it needs to access the ax.25 kernel interface at start-up. -- Tom Russo KM5VY SAR502 DM64ux http://www.swcp.com/~russo/ Tijeras, NM QRPL#1592 K2#398 SOC#236 AHTB#1 http://kevan.org/brain.cgi?DDTNM "It's so simple to be wise: just think of something stupid to say and then don't say it." --- Sam Levinson _______________________________________________ Xastir mailing list Xastir@xastir.org http://lists.xastir.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/xastir
