Hallo,
Ich weiss das diese gruppe normale weise die Deutsche sprache hat, aber ich
kan mein problem besser auf english erklaren. Antworten auf Deutsch ist
uberhaupt kein problem.
I have a big problem to get FBB running on my brand new SuSE 7.3. I used to
run RedHat 5.2 for years without problems.
When I start FBB my system completely crashes. Yes, the system - the
complete PC hangs itself. Nothing responds and not even an Oops appears. I
can not change between virtual consoles (outside X) and the only thing that
is "moving" is a blinking caps-lock light.
I have 2 modems on my system, a BayCom for APRS use and a YAM 9k6 which is
used by FBB. Using "call" I can connect to the local BBS via the YAM modem,
and on the BayCom I can see traffic. I have to use the full-duplex driver, I
still have to sort out why.
Furthermore there is an ax25-loopback to simulate access over the air
towards FBB. I used the FBB supplied with SuSE but because that crashed I
also compiled my own. The one I compliled was the very same version that had
ran for years on RH 5.2 (only small patches to make it work with the new
utils).
FBB is not using the baycom. Not stating up BayCom doesn't make a
difference, and even when I only use the loopback ond have switched off the
YAM modem the crash will occur, albeit it takes a little longer. When I
disable all kernel-AX25 interfaces FBB stays up, but that's pritty useless
:-(.
I hope somebody can help me, I use FBB as intermediate program between
eMail/News and the local BBS. The local FBB does the forwarding and
reception and MailGW passes it to sendmail and INN.
Kind regards,
Henk.
Here are the details of my setup:
