Hello Dieter How kind of you! Yes I would take you up on your offer, I think that would make it much easier for me. I have never tried building the Linux kernel or any of it's sub modules, and from all the conversations going on about it, it sounds a bit daunting! And yes, I found this email of yours in my "Junk" folder, and I have tried twice to respond directly back to you but the emails kept bouncing back after the server tried 25 times to send them, which is why I haven't responded until now. My apologies. I am kinda sad and worried that OpenSuSE might be giving up on us amateur radio operators, I have been a long time fan of OpenSuSE primarily because of their wonderful support for amateur radio in the past. If no one wants to support these modules any more maybe I could step in and help. I am an experienced programmer, but I would need help/mentoring to learn how to work with the kernel and these modules as well as the OpenSuSE software development processes. Marc...

Hello Marc, maybe my email ended in your spam folder ... I could provide readily built ready to go kernel packages based on the current openSUSE kernel, packaged as rpm so you could easily upgrade and remove again without fiddling around with homegrown solutions - but, as I said, I would need to know whether you want this :-) If you want it I would send you a link for download. Best
Dieter

Carlos, Andrie, Per, Anton, Masaru - I just wanted to let you all know that I am following along with the discussions (not fully understanding) about the rebuilding of the kernel with the missing modules. I have not disappeared and I really appreciate the amount of effort you are putting into resolving this problem for me so a BIG thanks. I will wait until the dust settles and you can send me a set of instructions before I do anything further. ;-) I can post the procedure I wrote till yesterday, but I'm stuck on what to do next.
I have submitted a bug report about the missing mkiss module, and got the following response which I added a further comment and pushed back on -
Takashi Iwai commented on the bug report -
CONFIG_HAMRADIO was set off already in Leap 15.0, so it's nothing new
in Leap 15.1.
We've disabled drivers that appear almost unused at upgrading to the
major version, and this was one of the results, I suppose. But they are enabled in 15.1
