Re: ISDN

[Gnanasekaran Thoppae <gnana@mips.biochem.mpg.de>]

hi again,

i figured out that my isdn card support is not available
in the potato's kernel (2.2.17).  I have ELSA Microlink ISDN PCI
internal isdn card and I do not see this card entry in modconf
hisax module insertion step.  

What surprising me is that redhat 7.0 which uses 2.2.16-22 kernel
is able to working with my card! Ofcourse, they have a GUI based
tool called 'isdn-config' which lists my card in the hardware entry.
Well, I guess redhat backported the latest isdn4linux drivers on
2.2.16

So, my question now is 'do I backport the latest isdn4linux drivers
onto my 2.2.17 source and recompile?

FYI: cat /proc/pci shows the same irq and io both in debian and
in redhat, which made me to guess that redhat backported the latest
drivers from teh CVS may be.

thanks!
