HI Tom
I had similar problem with my suse distro.
I had to download a new kernel and patch it up.
The files can be found on my server here at YFS but i dont have the  
fastest ADSL link.
You are more than welcome to download them.
they can be found at:
http://gb7yfs.org.uk/public/linux/new_kernel_bits/

also in that directory is all the ax25 bits i used here.
When i was running 2.4.20 i could average around 10 days uptime, since i  
upgraded it runs and runs and runs till i reboot it. LOL

Hope this helps a little

Best Regards
Ian
