1) check if your TUX startup script matches tux-* version and that it 
really starts the way you want
2) probably this is caused by version mismatch between kernel tux patch 
and tux-* package (maybe 2.x package and 3.0 in kernel etc.) - beware - 
it's impossible to tell version of kernel tux from looking at HTTP 
headers, but if you're using kernel 2.6, then it's tux 3.0, and on that 
2.4 machine chances are that it's tux 2.2. Also check that "tux" binary 
can load all required libraries - change to directory containing "tux" 
then run "ldd tux".

Hope this helps!

Best Wishes,
Viktors
