1.2.0 seems to work fine :-) just a small problem getting AX25028 into it
without errors, but it doesnt die. I have it running here with TNos, ax25
in the kernel, and tnos talking to the linux system over ax25 across a pty :-)

Anyone know how to fix the call to ax25_set_timer without being initialised ?
