Topic: How to Install HiSax Patch

[Kif]

Hii,
This  is perhaps a daft question, but i know very little about linux... I'm  learning very quickly tho )
I've had problems getting a BT Speedway PCI ISDN Card (AVM Fritz) to work with my SME Server... I have now learned that HiSax will  only support the card after applying a patch, as the card has it's own hisax module - hisax_fcpcipnp

I now have the patch, hisax-2.4.9-ac4-20010910.patch, but havent a clue  what i need to do with it  as im a  total newbie with all this linux stuff

Will  someone please help and let me know what to do with it.
( newbie language please)


Thanks

Kif

I'd strongly recommend you buy a different ISDN card - one which is already supported. Patching and building an already patched kernel is not a task for a newbie.
