John,

I have given this a go, but still recieve the invalid length error.  I
am in the process of instrumenting further to find out what size
packets are being sent by the kernel.

$ diff -Nru gam_data.c gam_data_m.c

         }
         /* check the packet total length */
         if (evn->len > sizeof(GAMPacket)) {
-            gam_error(DEBUG_INFO, "invalid length %d\n", evn->len);
+            gam_error(DEBUG_INFO, "invalid length %d expected
sizeof(GAMPacket) %d got %d\n", evn->len, sizeof(GAMPacket),
evn->len);
             return (-1);
         }
         /* check the version */


Will I have to replace any headers other than inofity.h?
