ISDNLOG tries to get its information out of the card with the ID 'line0'.
That's OK, because it's the default ID for card-drivers compiled into
the kernel.
Nevertheless the default ID for module-drivers is 'HiSax'.

The solution is obvious:
Make the card respond to the ID 'line0'.
You can do this by adding 'id=line0' to your modprobe line
(if you load the module by hand or in an rc-script - as it is recommended)
or by putting this argument into conf.modules
(if you let kerneld do the dirty work - not recommended).

I have that one too, and wasn't getting happy with it until I found
kernel 2.0.36pre15.
With this kernel-patch and the isdnutils included in hamm 2.0 I have
solved all my problems (so far).

Hope this helps.
