Too bad nobody is maintaining the Linux DECNET packages anymore.

Yeah   the module doesn't build on newer kernels, iirc. I tried. ;)

Actually, it does, but procfs and sysfs or whatever have changed too much for it to be configured.

Define "newer"?   It runs fine on 3.20.

Well I /was/ running Scientific Linux, so that could explain it. ;)

Do they muck with their kernels?   If not, and it's likely they don't,
I don't see that having much to do with it.

I believe they do muck with their kernels, yes.

Maybe i'll reinstall that VM some time   all it runs is the script you get when you ssh -p 2222 endpoint at dev.gimme-sympathy.org (with a pass of endpoint123).
