    That would be great. I used to see this time to time on two different
    systems with significant traffic load, namely that of HA3PMF and WB0TAX.
    But HA5OB/Zoli also reported to experience it on his pc.

    Once the system turnes to this state, modules like ax25 and netrom can not
    be removed any more and usually it dies with a kernel crash in 1 or 2
    days. Unless I notice in time and restart the computer but I hate doing
    so. Always feel like somebody is watching, then he might believe I'm using
    windows ;-)))
