are you using ax25?
If using ax25 you need to set the xastir binary to use root permissions
to access the ax25 stack
chmod 4755 /usr/local/bin/xastir # if you are running a binary Xastir,
use "chmod 4755 /usr/bin/xastir" 

from http://www.xastir.org/wiki/HowTo:AX.25_-_Ubuntu/Debian

perhaps a request to ax25 which couldn't be handled was causing the
lockup
