You seem to be using the wrong modules-patch, i cant remember what the last
patch number was, but it should be in the 14d range not 13. Check the README
and CHANGES file for details.

If you do 'find /usr/src/linux/ -name *.rej' i am sure you will find some
rejected patches.

Not using a IP#. use 'kissattach -i IP#'
Do 'ifconfig' and check sl0.
Note: kissattach needs 'mkiss' either as a module or in the kernel.

Anyway a radio interface would be called 'ax0' by kissattch not sl0.
It would have been beter if you included the relavant part of your startup
script.
