Doesn't the hisax driver need a 'type' and a 'protocol' statement?
That would mean

	options hisax type=11 protocol=2 io=0x200 irq=10

for the ISA card and

	options hisax type=11 protocol=2

for the PCI version, assuming Euro ISDN as the protocol (not sure if
this actually applies to the UK).
See /usr/src/linux/Documentation/isdn/README.eicon for details.

Can't help with the certificate, although I'm getting the same message
with kernel 2.2.19 and an Elsa card. I believe that this is a legal
issue, though, and that it won't affect the driver's functionality.
