Greetings;
Is it me or does the Jessie version of the Banana Pi OS fail to include kernel modules for the ax25 stack?.. and if so would a custom compile of the kernel work?
Curious as if anyone else has gone through this one before. I know it's fine with the Raspberry Pi but I'm not that familiar with a Banana Pi.
If I'm not mistaken, installing ax25-tools handles all kernel modules and dependencies on Jessie.

That's incorrect. There are the kernel modules in:
#ax25.ko # ls /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/net/ax25
# 6pack.ko baycom_ser_fdx.ko baycom_ser_hdx.ko bpqether.ko hdlcdrv.ko mkiss.ko yam.ko # ls /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/net/hamradio
Then there are all the programs that come from the core AX.25 packages

They seem to be there for the raspberry pi units but not available for banana pi units. --- Pardon my brevity, I'm on a Samsung Galaxy smartphone. --- Sent via axMail-Fax by N1URO.

Yeah.. this is where the Raspberry Pi community and the Rasbian distribution makes the difference between their SBC and many of the other SBCs out there. Maybe the people who maintained the repos for the Banana Pi distro will add this kernel config:
CONFIG_HAMRADIO=y CONFIG_AX25=m CONFIG_AX25_DAMA_SLAVE=y CONFIG_NETROM=m CONFIG_ROSE=m CONFIG_MKISS=m CONFIG_6PACK=m CONFIG_BPQETHER=m CONFIG_BAYCOM_SER_FDX=m CONFIG_BAYCOM_SER_HDX=m CONFIG_BAYCOM_PAR=m CONFIG_BAYCOM_EPP=m CONFIG_YAM=m CONFIG_LEGACY_PTYS=y CONFIG_LEGACY_PTY_COUNT=256
Wouldn't hurt to ask!
