Put AVM B1 ISDN controller into system 2. Apply first workaound https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=167291 3.

Try to use /etc/rc.d/init.d/isdn to execute the proper steps required for full function like: # modprobe capidrv # modprobe capi # /sbin/avmcapictrl load /etc/firmware/isdn/b1.t4 1 Loading Bootcode /etc/firmware/isdn/b1.t4 ... done Actual Results: Not supported, FIRMWARE of /etc/sysconfig/isdn doesn't help, capi modules aren't loaded, too. Expected Results: Support of such card Additional info: Workaround: 1) disable isdn initscript # chkconfig isdn off 2) use /etc/rc.modules to load modules and firmware: # cat <<END >>/etc/rc.modules # Enable AVM B1 CAPI and Firmware modprobe capidrv && modprobe capi && while [ ! -e /dev/capi20 ]; do sleep 1; done && /sbin/avmcapictrl load /etc/firmware/isdn/b1.t4 1 END # chmod 755 /etc/rc.modules
RHEL3/4 only support the passiv ISDN cards. Active ISDN cards are not supported yet. It should be supported in next coming RHEL5 Many thanks for your report.
