NetBSD drivers for ISDN Surfer and ISDN Link available in -current



Driver for Individual Computer "ISDN Surfer" and Zeus Development "ISDN Link"
==============================================================================

The NetBSD-Amiga driver for the Siemens ISDN chipset was enhanced to support
two more Zorro Bus boards:

* Individual Computer "ISDN Surfer", id 4626/5
* Zeus Development "ISDN Link", id 2189/3

Already supported where:

* BSC ISDN Master         2092/64
* ITH ISDN Master II      5000/1
* VMC ISDN Blaster        5001/1

The interupt level for the ISDN Surfer is set by the driver. You have to
switch the other boards to IPL 2 with a jumper on the board.

More information about configuring isdn on NetBSD can be found in the 
electronic manual pages (man isdnd) and at [1].

These drivers, as all of the ISDN subsystem, are available in NetBSD-current,
the development branch of NetBSD, and will be available in the next formal
release, NetBSD-1.6. External testers are asked to run NetBSD-current on their
experimental machines and to report problems. Production systems should 
continue to run NetBSD-1.5 until 1.6 is released. For 1.5, you need to add
the external isdn4bsd package [2] to your system; however note that the ISDN
surfer and ISDN link are not supported there.
