SUSE Linux
ISDN-Controller B1 PCI v4.0 – 11 Installation in Linux 51
SUSE Linux
To simplify installation, AVM provides pre-compiled driver
archives for SUSE Linux 6.3 and higher. In versions SUSE
Linux 8.1 or higher, a CAPI4Linux driver is already integrat-
ed in the operating system.
Other Distributions
The ISDN-Controller B1 PCI v4.0 can be used with all other
current Linux distributions.
Installation in other distributions or kernel versions must
be adapted individually depending on the components
used. All driver components required for integration into
other software distributions or kernel versions, including
the source code and short instructions, are supplied in the
SRC directory of the corresponding tar archive. Since the bi-
nary-only modules contained in the drivers (for instance
b1.t4) are kernel-independent, they do not execute any di-
rect kernel calls. This means that they can be integrated in-
to any Linux kernel.
The ISDN4Linux package is not required for the installation
of CAPI4Linux.
For information about parallel operation of ISDN4Linux and
CAPI4Linux, see the “Service” section on the AVM Internet
pages:
www.avm.de/en/service/FAQs
and the AVM Data Call Center (ADC).
11.1 Installation in Linux
SUSE Linux
In versions SUSE Linux 8.2 or higher, a CAPI4Linux driver is
already integrated in the operating system. For older SUSE
versions, information is provided in the documentation on
the installation CD, in the tar archive of the corresponding
SUSE version.
