Indeed it is,
<snip id="syslog output" />

First off: check for /dev/hfc_usb0, it might be what you need if it's
there.

Else:


Could you check to see that udev or devfs is running?

$ps -e | grep dev

It should give some output like:

 9613 ?        00:00:00 udevd

If not, unplug your ISDN-gizmo, type:

$sudo /etc/init.d/udev restart

plug it in again and check the output from tail /var/log/syslog again. 

If udevd or devfsd was running my guess is that udev doesn't 'know' your
device yet, google for the name of your device and 'major minor'. With
this info you can then create the device-node(s) yourself using:

mknod -m666 /dev/<nodename> [c|b] <major> <minor>

where you can replace 666 with the access-rights you prefer, <nodename>
is the name you want for the node, [c|b] is either c or b (character- or
block-device) and major and minor are the major and minor numbers you
found.

If this works then you can permanently tweak the udev-config to do this
for you, see 'man udev' for details...


Good luck!
