See the + GNU General Public License for more details. + +However, if you wish to modify the HiSax sources, please note the following: + +HiSax has passed the ITU approval test suite with ELSA Quickstep ISDN cards +and Eicon Technology Diva 2.01 PCI card. +The certification is only valid for the combination of the tested software +version and the tested hardware. Any changes to the HiSax source code may +therefore affect the certification. + +Additional ITU approval tests have been carried out for all generic cards +using Colognechip single chip solutions HFC-S PCI A for PCI cards as well +as HFC-S USB based USB ISDN ta adapters. +These tests included all layers 1-3 and as well all functional tests for +the layer 1. Because all hardware based on these chips are complete ISDN +solutions in one chip all cards and USB-TAs using these chips are to be +regarded as approved for those tests. Some additional electrical tests +of the layer 1 which are independent of the driver and related to a +special hardware used will be regarded as approved if at least one +solution has been tested including those electrical tests. So if cards +or tas have been completely approved for any other os, the approval +for those electrical tests is valid for linux, too. +Please send any questions regarding this drivers or approval abouts to +werner@isdn-development.de +Additional information and the type approval documents will be found +shortly on the Colognechip website www.colognechip.com + +If you change the main files of the HiSax ISDN stack, the certification will +become invalid. Because in most countries it is illegal to connect +unapproved ISDN equipment to the public network, I have to guarantee that +changes in HiSax do not affect the certification. + +In order to make a valid certification apparent to the user, I have built in +some validation checks that are made during the make process. The HiSax main +files are protected by md5 checksums and the md5sum file is pgp signed by +myself: + +KeyID 1024/FF992F6D 1997/01/16 Karsten Keil <kkeil@suse.de> +Key fingerprint = 92 6B F7 58 EE 86 28 C8 C4 1A E6 DC 39 89 F2 AA + +Only if the checksums are OK, and the signature of the file +"drivers/isdn/hisax/md5sums.asc" match, is the certification valid; a +message confirming this is then displayed during the hisax init process. + +The affected files are: + +drivers/isdn/hisax/isac.c +drivers/isdn/hisax/isdnl1.c +drivers/isdn/hisax/isdnl2.c +drivers/isdn/hisax/isdnl3.c +drivers/isdn/hisax/tei.c +drivers/isdn/hisax/callc.c +drivers/isdn/hisax/l3dss1.c +drivers/isdn/hisax/l3_1tr6.c +drivers/isdn/hisax/cert.c +drivers/isdn/hisax/elsa.c +drivers/isdn/hisax/diva.c +drivers/isdn/hisax/hfc_pci.c + +Please send any changes, bugfixes and patches to me rather than implementing +them directly into the HiSax sources. + +This does not reduce your rights granted by the GNU General Public License. +If you wish to change the sources, go ahead; but note that then the +certification is invalid even if you use one of the approved cards. + +Here are the certification registration numbers for ELSA Quickstep cards: +German D133361J CETECOM ICT Services GmbH 0682 +European D133362J CETECOM ICT Services GmbH 0682 + + +Karsten Keil +keil@isdn4linux.de + +-----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- +Version: 2.6.3i +Charset: noconv + +iQCVAwUBOFAwqTpxHvX/mS9tAQFI2QP9GLDK2iy/KBhwReE3F7LeO+tVhffTVZ3a +20q5/z/WcIg/pnH0uTkl2UgDXBFXYl45zJyDGNpAposIFmT+Edd14o7Vj1w/BBdn +Y+5rBmJf+gyBu61da5d6bv0lpymwRa/um+ri+ilYnZ/XPfg5JKhdjGSBCJuJAElM +d2jFbTrsMYw= +=LNf9 +-----END PGP SIGNATURE----- |
