net tapping or sheeping on disk-image-based Mol?

[Gregory W Alexander]

Unfortunately, mol seems to be broken in Debian.  I suspect this is due 
to 0.9.62 starting to use get_zeroed_page, and thus breaking kernel 2.2 
support.

My suggestion would be to remove the mol and any mol-modules packages 
and compile/install it yourself.  The problem with this solution is that 
it MIGHT require compiling a new kernel so that you can get accurate 
headers.
