Unless you're running a 2.2x kernel and 2.4.x has the support you need or it's 100% compatible to another brand of isdn-modem. What you can do is the following: compile isdn-support as modules, compile hisax as module and include all possible drivers for it, load the module wiht differnet cardtypes, check dmesg-commandoutput if initialization was correct (if needed). If it's a pcmcia-card, you have to check pcmcia-cs docs for more details cause for those cards (at least in 2.2.x kernels) you need support there. 2.4.x has that support in the kernel itself. Also be sure it's a hisax-compatible driver at the first place and se if there maybe another dirver in the kernel which will do the trick. Ultimately, contact the hardware-vendor to see if they know if it's supported. success!
