I need some advice.  I recently had to switch from a pci cyclades card to 
a isa cyclades card to try to prevent random server crashing.  I got the 
device compiled into and recognized by my kernel, I unpatched (I think) 
the pci drivers, but I cannot get ANY of my connections to work.  When I 
dial up, it just hangs at a blank white screen (windows 95 dialup).  I am 
not getting any conversation with the server going.  What I need to know 
is, can I reinstall any certain portion of the getty stuff, or the pppd 
stuff or whatever to try to get my MAKEDEV to make the proper devices so 
this will work?  I think what has happened is that some things were 
patched by the PCI version that are not getting put back to right, 
therefore the cyclades is not talking to the server and getting the getty 
running.  I could try putting back the pci cyclades but I don't see how 
that will help me.  I just have no idea what files, directories, etc., 
are tapped in this process, so I probably need to somehow put back some 
original files to make this work.  I sure would appreciate any help 
anyone can offer in this area.  This is really starting to get me down.
