Hi Shaul, first of all: thanks for your continuing help.
> I do not know. Does the config file shows support for ISDN? on my system a grep ISDN /boot/config-2.2.17 shows: CONFIG_ISDN=m CONFIG_ISDN_PPP=y CONFIG_ISDN_PPP_VJ=y CONFIG_ISDN_MPP=y CONFIG_ISDN_AUDIO=y CONFIG_ISDN_TTY_FAX=y CONFIG_ISDN_DRV_LOOP=m CONFIG_ISDN_DIVERSION=y CONFIG_ISDN_DRV_HISAX=m CONFIG_ISDN_DRV_ICN=m CONFIG_ISDN_DRV_PCBIT=m CONFIG_ISDN_DRV_ACT2000=m CONFIG_ISDN_DRV_EICON=m CONFIG_ISDN_DRV_EICON_ISA=y CONFIG_ISDN_DRV_AVMB1=m CONFIG_ISDN_DRV_AVMB1_B1ISA=y CONFIG_ISDN_DRV_AVMB1_B1PCI=y CONFIG_ISDN_DRV_AVMB1_B1PCIV4=y CONFIG_ISDN_DRV_AVMB1_T1ISA=y CONFIG_ISDN_DRV_AVMB1_B1PCMCIA=y CONFIG_ISDN_DRV_AVMB1_T1PCI=y CONFIG_ISDN_DRV_AVMB1_C4=y CONFIG_ISDN_DRV_AVMB1_VERBOSE_REASON=y although I do not really understand any line it looks to me as if it should be o.k. > Since I am using the ISDN sub system as modules, I am also using the > following: > > [17:29:09 /tmp]$ tail -7 /etc/modutils/aliases > alias char-major-43 hisax > alias char-major-44 hisax > alias char-major-45 hisax > options hisax type=27 > alias ippp0 isdn I also would like to use it as module. I do not have any entry like this but I think this is the point I run into problems with modconf. When I try to edit this file manually I also get the same errors. Anyway I will read all the documentation you provided to me and if I still won't get it to run I will ask again, hopefully knowing a bit better where the error could be located. thanks again for your effort and your hint to useful documentation.
