In fact the card is quite "old": I bought it in 1995 / 1996 or so .... I opened the box again this morning (I actually have taken a day off from work to get this working !) to investigate the card, serials, and chipset. Here is what is on several stickers and directly on the card: DYNIS64PH+ DYNALINK IS64PH+ ISDN IS64PH P/N 910524126 TA200S100092475 714909000048 CE0499X The two biggest chips on the card are both from Siemens, and they read: SIEMENS PSB 21525 N HSCX TE V2.1 GERMANY 748 SIEMENS PSP 2186N V1.1 ISAC-S TE GERMANY 9750L I have read through LINT and found that I *should* use following two lines in the kernel config: options DYNALINK device iwic I have just tried this, but I get the same result: the card is not recognized :-( The manpages for isic give two more options (based on your suggestions): for FreeBSD: options ASUSCOM_IPAC device isic0 for NetBSD: options DYNALINK device isic* at isapnp? By the way, both entries for "options" were written between double quotes, but I have understood that the actual enry should be made without the quotes, correct ? I am going to try the above two options, we'll see .... Regards, Arvid To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-isdn" in the body of the message
