So, what can I do? After following the IsdnHowto from the Wiki, I
get the same error message as above. I use the original Ubuntu
Kernel on this PC, where sysfs is compiled in, with no modifications
(except those ones mentioned in the Howto, that only affect modules
loaded).
$ uname -r
2.6.8.1-3-k7
Restarting udev doesn't help:
$ sudo /etc/init.d/udev restart
Password:
* Recreating device nodes... [ ok ]
$sudo /etc/init.d/isdnutils restart
Restarting ISDN services: error:
Neither /dev/isdninfo nor /dev/isdn/isdninfo exist!
Before you can use any ISDN facilities, ensure you have the
proper kernel modules loaded. These will probably be 'isdn' and
'hisax'. Read /usr/share/doc/isdnutils/README.HiSax.gz for more
information (e.g. with 'zless
(usr/share/doc/isdnutils-base/README.HiSax.gz').
I really appreciate any help, because my friend needs his PC (with
working ISDN support). TIA!

Christoph
