Ok :) I wrote isdn-light because I found isdn3net was bloated (at the time), and I needed a simple package that works similary to an ethernet interface, and also a simple way to handle firmware loading in the isdn cards. But if you have taken over the development of isdn4net, isdn-light can be dropped, now that cooker has you :) [...] > > I have a ready src-rpm for it i can send you.

Is there a list of supported isdn cards by drakconnect+isdn4net ?
