Hi Hans,

Is the "previous test version" you talk about 2.4.0-test13-pre7? There weren't any changes since then that could explain this, except maybe:

Yes, I mean test13-pre[12134567] and other older versions too. I've already had the problem some time ago with an older 2.4.0-testxx kernel. I don't think it is directly related to the ax25 stuff but maybe (?) a timer modified elsewhere ?

Gnu C 2.95.2

Possible too. These compilers problems (which one for which kernel) are a bit boring... Anyway, I've downloaded the correct version of the compiler and retried the operation.

[root@debian-f5ibh] ~ # gcc -v
Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i586-pc-linux-gnu/egcs-2.91.66/specs gcc version egcs-2.91.66 19990314 (egcs-1.1.2 release)

The result is the same than with the other compiler.

Best wishes for 2001 for you and your family

Ok, so the problem lies deeper. Could you take a guess at the version that worked (say 2.2.17?) and the first one that stopped working (say 2.4.0-test1?)... Once we have a rough range, I'll see if I can find anything.

Also: I assume you have PROC_FS compiled. What does /proc/net/z8530drv contain before and after the failed packet TX attempt?

And: Can you receive any packets?
