No I didn't! Did not realize I needed proprietary software for an active CAPI 2.0 card!

Thanks, I'm currently searching for the documentation I missed here... I've now: a) downloaded the 2 files into that directory b) edited /etc/isdn/capi.conf to uncomment the entry you specified (it was already there with a preceding #) c) and then wanted to restart /etc/init.d/isdnactivecards yet that file doesn't seem to part of the isdnactivecards (which was previously automatically installed). > You can test if everything is all right with "capiinfo" (as a user > that has the right to read /dev/capi20). Of course this still fails since the issue above hasn't been resolved yet. > The error above shows that is not a permission issue. If it were a > permission issue, the error would be EPERM.
