can't make sebek-3.0.3 work

Hello,
I am trying to make sebek-3.0.3 work for the last few days, but I can't
get it straight. sbk_install.sh will either fail installing the module,
or if it succeeds the system will crash after a few keystrokes.

I don't have a honeywall installed. Currently I just want to get a
single sebek host running and collect udp packets with netcat.

I have tried sebek-3.0.3 on a vmware host running debian with vanilla
2.4.30, debian 2.4.27, redhat 2.4.20-8 kernels. I also tried it on a
Dell GX280 running gentoo, kernel vanilla 2.4.30. I tried both
self-compiled and precompiled modules.

Are there any DOs or DONTs regarding the kernel/hardware configuration
that are not mentioned in the README?

Any help/ideas are welcome.

Regards,
Manolis
