- main url: http://www.math1.rwth-aachen.de/~heine/ftape/development.html
- you need drivers (kernel space): ftape-4.03-pre-2 under kernel 2.0.x resp.
  those unstable ones under kernel 2.2.x (in fact they are rather stable as
  well)
- you need utilities (user space): ftape-tools-1.07

- isdn4linux is a bit chaotic, I must say...The isdn developers are 
  widely involved with suse, so the official docs often tend to rely on suse.
- newsgroup: de.alt.comm.isdn4linux (feel free to ask your questions in 
  enlish language - almost everybody there can speak english; a different
  question is if they can answer right your problems); the newsgroup is
  a 1:1 gateway to the mailing list.
- you need kernel patches from ftp.suse.com/pub/isdn4linux/ - there are
  different kernel patches depending on if you use kernel 2.0.x or 2.2.x.
- you additionlally need utilities from right the same place; you use
  the same utilities for both kernel 2.0.x and kernel 2.2.x.

Bye, bye, Juergen.
