Re: FRITZ!Card PCI & Linux



First of all, thanks for your help. It still doesn't work though.

The first problem I encountered was that linux 2.2.3 only includes support
for "AVM A1 (AKA Fritz)", while 2.0.36 has support for "AVM A1 (Fritz)"
"AVM PCI (Fritz! PCI)" "AVM PCMCIA (Fritz)". Anyway, I just setteled for
the 2.0.36 kernel instead of the 2.2.3 kernel.

I followed your instructions to see if my card is working (modprobe... ;
tail...), and I got the results I should have. After that, in according to
your instructions, I "rmmod hisax" and then "rmmod isdn". The HiSax went by
quietly, but when I did an "rmmod isdn" my system hanged (Wow, Linux can
actually hang! The first time I saw that). I assume the reason is that my
kernel is autoconfigured to load the modules it needs on startup with
modprobe, so it was probably depending on the isdn module it loaded. It
also tries to load hisax.o but it returns an error message. That error
message is the same message I get when type "modprobe hisax" instead of
"modprobe hisax type=27 protocol=2". I tried looking in RedHat's Kernel
Configuration utility, but the module wasn't there, so I couldn't give it
parameters. When I tried to add a module from there, it doesn't give me
"isdn" as an option. What do I have to do in order to get the kernel to
auto-load the module on startup?

But putting that problem aside for a moment, if I manually load the module,
and I execute the "dial" script i got from your website, and it gives me an
error message about not finding any devices on "isdn0" or something like
that. What have I done wrong?

Oh, btw, on your instructions you forgot to mention to install isdn4k-utils
and isdn4net.

Thanks in advance,
