Installation Guide  

HFC-S PCI based cards are already supported by the original Linux kernel. The driver is part of the so called "HiSax" module which is maintained by the ISDN4Linux developers group.

Modern Linux distributions (like SuSE Linux and RedHat Linux) support HFC-S PCI cards by an automatic hardware detection. They come with a pre-compiled Linux kernel including the HiSax ISDN driver suite. So you just have to configure the Internet connection.

Just follow our installation instructions as example for
SuSE 8.2 Linux
or
RedHat Linux 8.0

If you use another Linux distribution without HiSax support included or if you want to compile your own kernel with HiSax support, just follow our Kernel Compilation Instructions.

Note
The Linux driver runs with both revisions of Cologne's ISDN PCI chip HFC-S PCI and HFC-S PCI A.

Many Linux distributions call these chips simply HFC or HFC-PCI. Sometimes this leads to misunderstandings. Just make sure that it is HiSax driver type 35.
