Description of problem: Whenever I try to use axcall, after having attached to my virtual Kiss TNC node (direwolf), I get the following error: $ axcall -r radio db0xx GW4PTS AX.25 Connect 2.0.1 AX25_WINDOW: Invalid argument Even if I explicitly set the window with -w 2 I get the same error. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.0.0-5.fc35 How reproducible: Anytime I use axcall I get the error message as long as I have attached a device. Additional command line arguments were not able to make a difference (e.g. setting the -w parameter). Steps to Reproduce: 1. Set up a TNC (I use direwolf), which is exposed on e.g. /dev/pts/2 2. Add the following line to /etc/ax25/axports (use tabs instead of spaces): radio dl1xxx-5 1200 255 2 144.800 MHz 1200 3. Run kissattach: # kissattach /dev/pts/2 radio 4. Run axcall $ axcall -r radio db0xx Actual results: GW4PTS AX.25 Connect 2.0.1 AX25_WINDOW: Invalid argument Expected results: axcall tries to connect to db0xx Additional info:
I'm not sure what to do, I switched to the fork at https://github.com/ve7fet/linuxax25 a few years ago because the main source had not been updated in some time. Now it seems the fork is suffering for the same reason. The last commit was in 2019.
For posterity here's a thread for the same issue on Debian, looks to be a change made in the kernel so no quick fixes here. https://lists.debian.org/debian-hams/2022/01/msg00106.html
