I was using kissparms to adjust the timing. The input from another person
did help to change the kernel timing to 1000HZ.

Even then the system was still not stable. I have tabled the ax25 suite in
favor of JNOS2 which has been very solid with the latest kernel and Gentoo
linux. Its all working (tunnels, netrom, iptables, snort...) with uDev
etc.

Thank you for your time and help.
