Kernel 2.6.32 and fcpci (FritzCard)

Dear archers,

i try to setup a fritzcard on a new soho-server:

[root@syscgn010 ~]# uname -a
Linux syscgn010 2.6.32-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Sat Dec 26 09:02:58 CET 2009 x86_64 Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU E7400 @ 2.80GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux

but i cant load the fcpci module, neither by hand, nor by "rc.d/capiinit start":

[root@syscgn010 ~]# capiinit start
FATAL: Error inserting fcpci (/lib/modules/2.6.32-ARCH/kernel/drivers/isdn/hardware/avm/fcpci.ko): Device or resource busy
ERROR: failed to load driver fcpci

But syslog tells me this:

[root@syscgn010 ~]# tail -f /var/log/messages.log 
Dec 30 20:42:19 syscgn010 kernel: capifs: Rev 1.1.2.3

Dec 30 20:46:56 syscgn010 kernel: fcpci: -- 64 bit CAPI driver --

and capiinfo tells me:

[root@syscgn010 ~]# capiinfo
capi not installed - No such device or address (6)

but according lspci, the device is there:

[root@syscgn010 ~]# lspci -v | grep AVM
04:04.0 Network controller: AVM GmbH Fritz!PCI v2.0 ISDN (rev 01)
    Subsystem: AVM GmbH Fritz!PCI v2.0 ISDN

i tried the installation a couple of weeks before, with an older test machine on 32bit - and it worked.

Can anybody point to a direction where to look for a misconfiguration or what can i do anyway to get
the fritzcard working?

anyone out there, who has an advice?

a really tired
cirk :-(

Re: Kernel 2.6.32 and fcpci (FritzCard)

hi,

avmfritz / isdn is somehow implemented know in the kernel.
In order to solve this problem i had to Blacklist some Modules

MODULES=(!hisax !isdn !capi !capifs !hisax_isac !avmfritz !mISDNipac !mISDNcore)
then fcpci doesnt refuse to load.

hf & gl

Re: Kernel 2.6.32 and fcpci (FritzCard)

Updated my System, wont work anymore, fcpci module loads, if

rc.conf

MODULES=(... !hisax fcpci !avmfritz !capi ...)

dmesg | grep fcpci

fcpci: AVM FRITZ!Card PCI driver, revision 0.7.2
fcpci: (fcpci built on May 17 2010 at 18:08:34)
fcpci: -- 32 bit CAPI driver --

But capiinit fails with

lsmod

Try adding the device node manually:
mknod /dev/capi20 c  68 0
chmod 0660 /dev/capi20

then after capiinit it should work ...
