I installed 2.4.18 a few days ago over 2.4.8, and have been impressed,
so far.
A lot of funnies to do with AX25 have disappeared (and a new one has
appeared: the suspected parport problem :-)
But if you are using KISS TNCs, 2.4.18 would have my vote. My
impression is, that it is more stable and possibly a little faster (the latter
may be to do with the change from ext2 to reiser, however)
I am busy patching up to 19-pre7, trying to get to the bottom of the picpar
problem....I want my 70 cm 9k6 port back.
Wilbert, ZL2BSJ
