Graphics Packet for Linux
 

Hello!!
I am looking for "Graphics Packet for Linux" application.
I have link ftp://147.229.35.11/pub/hamradio/Xpr/ but
unfortunately it is invalid. I will be greateful for
information where can I find this application.

Okay, so I went to:

http://radio.linux.org.au/

and looked-up XPR:

ftp://ftp.qsl.net/pub/ok2pid/xpr-0.42.tgz

Do I win a cookie?

Why do they all rely upon the kernels AX.25 ?
Kiss mode is limited to packet radio (at least with
the TNC's that I've got) and why would I want to run
packet radio on hf ? Pactor is better for hf and that
means I can't use any of all those "terminals" that
really rely upon the kernels ax.25 to do all the work.
Why pay lots of money for a competent controller and
then make it really stupid by using kiss ?

A lot of the Linux stuff is like that. When you wander away from the
mainstream, this is to be expected. Part of the problem is that most
software for Linux is open source, written by junior programmer wannabees,
then re-hacked by other "programmers" who are no better.

.... So the third-weenie OS is loaded up with third-weenie software.... Is
that a big surprise?

If you really wanted performance, you'd be going with #1.

You don't quite "get" open-source, do you?!

Heh... open-source does not automatically equate to good. Or it
shouldn't, anyway. As in just about anything, 90 percent is crap.
There's some good open source stuff out there, but I've not found much
for amateur radio.

That's true, however, there seemed to be an implied message that all
open-source was junk, at least compared to the excellent-quality (s******)
stuff from Redmond...

On the plus side, what is avaiable makes minimalists such as
myself happy. I'd rather have 10 programs that do one thing well
rather than one program that does 10 things. I seem to be in the
minority in this respect.
