Thanks, Alan, but the kernel does have IPX support.  Part of the output
of dpkg -l "*" says:

Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge
| Status=Not/Installed/Config-files/Unpacked/Failed-config/Half-installed
|/ Err?=(none)/Hold/Reinst-required/X=both-problems (Status,Err: uppercase=bad)

[...]
ii  ipx             1.0-1          Utilities to configure the kernel ipx interf
[...]

So, I believe that means it's properly installed and configured.

Any other ideas?  (I brought a copy of the dpkg -l output to work;
it's 1245 lines long, so I won't post it here!)
