I wondered if anyone would ask. Here's the bullet-list version:

- Toshiba 4080 XCDT; Woody, pretty much a net install from a 
magazine-cover CD; kernel 2.4.17 with kernel-style PCMCIA 
disabled

- "apt-get source pcmcia" got me version 3.1.31. Built & 
installed.

- Downloaded the half-binary, half-source tarball for fcpcmcia-
on-SuSE 7.3 from ftp.avm.de; unpacked it in /usr/src/

- Edited a few #include lines at the top of fcpcmcia_cs.c to 
point at my pcmcia source tree instead of the linux kernel 
source tree
(i.e., changed them from #include <pcmcia/[...].h> to #include 
"/usr/src/pcmcia-cs-3.1.31/include/pcmcia/[...].h")

- made & installed the AVM modules (fcpcmcia.o & fcpcmcia_cs.o); 
copied the avm.conf file from the AVM tarball to 
/etc/pcmcia/avm.conf and the pcmcia.conf file to /etc/capi.conf
(BTW I had had a go at getting the card working with isdnutils 
rather than the CAPI driver, and hence had to clean out my 
/etc/pcmcia/avm.conf to make it stop loading avma1_cs and the 
HiSax module.)

- apt-get install pppdcapiplugin

- dug capiinit and capiinfo out of the .rpm files in the AVM 
tarball and put them in /usr/local/bin and/or .../sbin

- /etc/init.d/pcmcia start

- Test connection: fix up pap-secrets with "netways * netways" 
then do "pppd call isdn/avm"

Hope this helps somebody!

Tony
