Subject: [Capisuite-users] Error in capi
Hello,
I'm trying to assemble a fax server using an isdn card. The system (SuSE
9.2) detects the card (a conceptronic) and installs the HiSaxDriver for
passiv ISDN cards (I get all these informations from the
/var/log/messages, /var/log/capisuite.error and /var/log/capisuite.log).
CapiSuite 0xbffff180: Can't start Capi abstraction. The given error
message was: CapiError: Error in CAPI20_ISINSTALLED: CAPI not installed.
occured in Capi::getCapiInfo()
Can someone help me?
Best regards,
-vcf

Shure, check that this card is supported via capi interface!

That is a good tip... but how do I check?

If it is "only" hisax you cant use capisuite.
If it can handle AT command with fax support you can use hylafax native.
If it is just a isdn card you cant fax at all via that card :(
Well I dont know if mISDN can handle that card via a different API
then hisax...

I can tell that I was able to work with vbox. Does this mean anything
(related with capi)?

Hope that helps...

Best regards,

Suse HardWareDataBase...

I know that most/all passive avm cards are working capi based with linux (more or less)
You need binary only driver from avm.

Same as:
-all active avm cards b1, c2, c4 (out of the box via kernel)
-eicon server BRI cards (same)
and some hypercope cards

With mISDN it should be possible to run more cards with capi but I am not shure.
mISDN is not ready and a pain to get it into kernel 2.6

No vbox is hisax based, sorry.
