This requires the following config options:<br /> <br /> CONFIG_HAMRADIO=y<br /> CONFIG_AX25=m<br /> CONFIG_NETROM=m<br /> CONFIG_ROSE=m<br /> <br /> Support for this in Debian looks like (based on the presence of the above options in the architecture specific configuration file in the latest source package):<br /> <br /> {|<br /> !

In particular, people have complained about it not working on the Pi. Maybe we can make life easier for Pi users by just enabling this.</div>
