For some reason the ax25ipd daemon is not starting, I keep on going in and
finding that it is not running, I am trying to figure out why it is
not starting if
all of the rest is running.

Maybe need to put a longer sleep in front of it.

Why do you have to reboot it, why not just cause it to redial? I have not done
dialup but know that a lot of people do it and do not have to reboot
the machine,
just have the dialer re-dial.

Are there any sort of messages anywhere prior to the lockup? I wonder
what would be causing them... Well there are all sort of tools, but a
lockup is not so common unless something is messing memory up or
something else.
