52 ISDN-Controller B1 PCI v4.0 – 11 Installation in Linux
Once the ISDN-Controller B1 PCI v4.0 has been physically
installed in your computer, the next step is to install the
ISDN-Controller using YaST. Once installation has been
completed, CAPI 2.0 applications can be started immedi-
ately. The first step we recommend is to use the CAPI Plug-
in for the Generic PPP Stack (pppd) to establish a test
connection to the AVM Data Call Center (ADC).
Other Linux Distributions
To install the driver software in other Linux distributions,
follow these instructions:
The CAPI modules are part of the standard Linux kernel and
can be generated using it as long as the correct settings are
made in the kernel configuration. In order to be able to use
the ISDN-Controller B1 PCI v4.0, the kernel modules
“capi.ko”, “kernelcapi.ko” and “capifs.ko” are required.
The source text for these modules is part of the Linux kernel
(in the directory /usr/src/linux/drivers/isdn/capi) and will
be translated with this kernel if the following settings are
made in the kernel configuration:
CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL=y
CONFIG_ISDN_CAPI=m
CONFIG_ISDN_DRV_AVMB1_VERBOSE_REASON=y
CONFIG_ISDN_CAPI_MIDDLEWARE=y
CONFIG_ISDN_CAPI_CAPI20=m
CONFIG_ISDN_CAPI_CAPIFS_BOOL=y
CONFIG_ISDN_CAPI_CAPIFS=m
CONFIG_ISDN_CAPI_CAPIDRV=m
After “make menuconfig”, switch to “Device Drivers”, “ISDN
subsystem” and select:
