I was wondering if anybody has got aprsd-2.5-16 rpm to install properly on 10.1 I downloaded the rpm off DG7GT web site and have not got it to work properly. I have only been able to find 2.1.5b9 rpm that installs and works on any Suse product. Maybe I am just doing something wrong, thanks anyway VE3TEJ Jim -- No virus found in this outgoing message.

The linux-hams list might be a good place to ask. I suspect most people compile it from sources instead of running RPM's. BTW: There are several versions of aprsd out there, some of them with major problems or lacking some important feature or other. You'd be well advised to ask what version is the best on the linux-hams list as well. -- Curt, WE7U.

James that rpm is broken. It also requires libax25 even though the description says not. Instead use the aprsd2.1.5b9 which is easy to install and run as you've found. I just tried it on a clean Suse 10.1 I was working on anyway, and it ran no problem first start. 73, Ron VE1AIC ftp://fr2.rpmfind.net/linux/SuSE-Linux/i386/9.2/suse/i586/aprsd-2.1.5b9-179.i586.rpm --- James Thomas <ve3tej@rogers.com> wrote:
