[Asterisk-bsd] Setting up Asterisk on FB6.1 with ISDN

Hi,

Having played with Asterisk, SIP and IAX2 for a while I now would like
to hook up my ISDN (BRI) line.

So I need an ISDN/PCI card and some drivers.

My system runs FreeBSD 6.2-PRERELEASE and I've installed the latest
asterisk-bristuff from ports.

For the driver I see that the asterisk-bristuff port contains the
chan_capi sources but they do not get built by default.  Should I get
the drivers from www.selasky.org or are they somewhere hidden in the
FreeBSD ports tree?

My hardware vendor has the following on offer:

    AVM FRITZ!CARD PCI V2.1
    AVM ISDN-CONTROLLER B1 4.0 PCI
    AVM ISDN-CONTROLLER C2
    AVM ISDN CONTROLLER C4 PCI

Any advise on which to use?  The first one is rather cheap so if it runs
ok that would be nice but I'm prepared to pay for a more expensive one
if it pays off in quality/features.

Is there any how-to document on-line for getting the combination
Asterisk+FreeBD+ISDN running?

Thanks in advance for answers.
