Hi All,

I am not having much luck installing a ISDN card to use Linux..  I think
the major problem..  is that I am not sure how to configure Linux to use
it...   
It's such a gray area of linux configuring to use these cards..  

I purchased a Columbus Web Kit so they call it...   It came with leads,
software drivers for Win95, etc and it's all Austel aproved.. It retails
for the $390 mark..

The actual ISDN card is a ITK ix1-micro Rev.2 which is 
supported using the Hisax driver...

I have tried Linux for ISDN..  but I am not sure where to start.. The 
address fot the FAQ for Isdn4Linux is 
ftp://ftp.franken.de/pub/isdn4linux/FAQ/eng-i4l-faq.html...  

The address for the driver is 
ftp://ftp.franken.de/pub/isdn4linux/HiSax/

Just wondering if any one else has tried one of these cards...  I have the
ISDN link here and currectly using a Netcomm Smart TA which I would like to
change over to the ISDN card..  It's just a matter of knowing how to do
it..

Anyone with any hints..  or experience on how to get this card going would
be helpful

thanks
