The problem is with the slhc module under 1.2.13 - it's corrupt or
something like that. If you compile a kernel with SLIP/CSLIP into the
kernel and dont load slip/slhc as modules you'll find all will be ok.
Hope this helps,

I don't recall having any trouble with dip, but I may not have tried
it before rebuilding the kernel.
