I doubt Alexander would mind ... :-) I suggest joining the isdn4linux mailing list by sending mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with subscribe isdn4linux your_email_address in the body, and read the FAQ residing on ftp://ftp.franken.de/pub/isdn4linux/FAQ/ http://www.lrz-muenchen.de/~ui161ab/www/isdn/ Yes, the recommended way is to patch the kernel to get the HiSax driver included instead of using the teles. It is in active development, considered more stable and supports more hardware. I recommend however to build the driver as a loadable module. The isdnutils Package in instable is rather outdated however (Christian.. ?), I recommend getting the current sources from ftp.franken.de/pub/isdn4linux/v2.0/isdn4k-utils-2.0.tar.gz and using ftp.franken.de/pub/isdn4linux/HiSax/HiSax_1.5.patch_for_2.0.gz as the kernel patch. A lot of people (including me) have problems with the current HiSax. Don't be afraid, isdn4linux is a very well working and stable product Probably the new driver will make it's way to 2.0.30 kernel, making applying patches unnecessary.
