Installing CAPI4Linux in SuSE Linux
ISDN-Controller C2 – 7 Installation in Linux 37
7.1 Installing CAPI4Linux in SuSE Linux
Make sure to perform the installation as a “root” user! That
means you must have write rights as a superuser in the
“root” directory.
Once the AVM ISDN-Controller C2 has been physically in-
stalled in your computer, the next step is to install the driver
software.
Once installation has been completed, CAPI 2.0 applications
can be started immediately. 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).
To install the software, proceed as follows:
1. Start a console (command prompt).
2. Insert the installation CD and switch to the following di-
rectory:
<CD-ROM drive>:/Cardware/C2/Linux
3. Copy the archive “c2-suse<SuSE version>-<driver ver-
sion>.tar.gz” to your computer.
4. Extract the archive with the following command:
tar -xzvf c2-suse<SuSE version>-<driver
version>.tar.gz
Example for SuSE 7.3:
tar -xzvf c2-suse7.3-03.09.10.tar.gz
A directory called “active” is created.
5. Switch to the new “active” directory.
6. Start installation by entering the following:
./install c2
