Problems using S.u.S.E. ISDN and your own kernel

Applies to

SuSE Linux: Version 5.0
Kernel: Version 2.0.30
isdn4k-utils: Version 2.1b1

Symptom:

You have compiled a kernel yourself. The HiSax driver is loadad without any troube. There is no reaction while trying to access the (ISDN) network. There are messages in /var/log/messages telling you that the system rings but no connection is established.

Cause:

You have installed the original kernel sources (package linux, series d). This contains an original 2.0.30 without patches. The HiSax driver used by S.u.S.E. is NOT included in this package! (the patched kernel sources can be found in package lx-suse, series d.

Well, this is the result:

isdn4linux makes use of the following modules:

  1. isdn.o
  2. hisax.o
A new isdn.o has been installed but no new hisax.o. These two are INCOMPATIBLE!

Solution:

  1. Simple: Install package kernmod, series d
  2. Extensiv: Install, configure and compile package 'lx-suse' and reinstall all modules.
