[asterisk-users] Little OT: Compilation of EICON driver fails with capi errors

[Stefan Guenther]

Hello,

I want to use a 4 port ISDN card from EICON/DIALOGIC in our asterisk server.
The system is a Ubuntu 7.10 with kernel 2.6.23.1. The compilation of the 
kernel finishes without any problems. I have downloaded and installed 
the deb-source package that EICON/DIALOGIC offers. Th installation 
script crashes with the following error messages:

# LOG ---- START SECTION read kernel version ------------------

Has anyone on the list experienced similar problems with an EICON card 
and has found a solution?
I also tested the installation with kernel 2.6.22-14 which is the one 
that comes with Ubuntu - same problem.
I already contacted EICON support but they haven't answered yet.

Thanks for any hint.

Stefan
