There is no -current support for X.25 in B or D channels nor LAPD in B -channels. The main reason is that these two other protocol modes have, -to my knowledge, very little use. If you want to see them implemented -*do* send me a mail. - -- The driver often triggers errors in the board that I and the -manufacturer believe to be caused by bugs in the firmware. The current -version includes several procedures for error recovery that should -allow normal operation. Plans for the future include cooperation with -the manufacturer in order to solve this problem. - -Information/hints/help can be obtained in the linux isdn -mailing list (isdn4linux@listserv.isdn4linux.de) or directly from me. - -regards, - Pedro. - -<roque@di.fc.ul.pt> |
