You will need to install the ax25utils from sourceforge, the ax25 module
is activated with the standard insmod command.
I suspect the latest perl package with the distro contains all the perl
modules needed for dxspider 1.50 or later.

Watch for updates to Mdk 9.0 
the last news letter received today showed these

Software Updates
----------------------------------------
9.0 security-related software updates have been released for:

tar -- fixes directory traversal vulnerability
drakconf -- fixes locale problems
fetchmail -- fixes various vulnerabilities
postgresql -- fixes various buffer overflows

View the complete list at:

Now some thing called "msec" might get in your way, the config file is 
/etc/sysctl.conf.
Check on the ipv4 statements
you may need to read the section on ipv4 in the documentation section 

good luck
