Subject: packet/soundmodem questions
Date: Sun, 25 Jan 2004 11:59:28 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200401251159.28252.n7bfs@qwest.net> (raw)
Have been following the list for a while now and got interested in the
soundmodem thread...
I too would like to get soundmodem up and running so as to be able to run 1200
baud packet from my laptop (IBM thinkpad T23) and have done a small amount of
searching but have not found any documentation on soundmodem, or at least so
little that it leaves me wondering how to make things work...
So my question is, is there a website or a how-to/info page/man page that
would help a newcomer to Linux AX25 packet and soundmodem?
I finally figured out that you have to be running an X session as root to run
soundmodemconfig and so I think I got a config file created, but am not sure
what to do next as far as running as a regular user to allow me to connect to
another packet station etc.
I used to use the AEA "PCPackratt" software that came with my PK900 when I had
that but have since sold it a number of years back when my interest in packet
had waned, but now as I don't run M$ products at home anymore and this thread
had sparked my interest again I am at a loss as to whether or not there is a
similar program that gives the same functionality ?
FWIW I am running SuSE 8.2pro on the Thinkpad and it runs great.
Sorry if I am missing something obvious and tia for any help that comes my way
