+Driver for active AVM Controller.
+
+The driver provides a kernel capi2.0 Interface (kernelcapi) and
+on top of this a User-Level-CAPI2.0-interface (capi)
+and a driver to connect isdn4linux with CAPI2.0 (capidrv).
+The lowlevel interface can be used to implement a CAPI2.0
+also for passive cards since July 1999.
+
+The author can be reached at calle@calle.in-berlin.de.
+The command avmcapictrl is part of the isdn4k-utils.
+t4-files can be found at ftp://ftp.avm.de/cardware/b1/linux/firmware
+
+Currently supported cards:
+ B1 ISA (all versions)
+ B1 PCI
+ T1/T1B (HEMA card)
+ M1
+ M2
+ B1 PCMCIA
+
+Installing
+----------
+
+You need at least /dev/capi20 to load the firmware.
+
+mknod /dev/capi20 c 68 0
+mknod /dev/capi20.00 c 68 1
+mknod /dev/capi20.01 c 68 2
+.
+.
+.
+mknod /dev/capi20.19 c 68 20
+
+Running
+-------
+
+To use the card you need the t4-files to download the firmware.
+AVM GmbH provides several t4-files for the different D-channel
+protocols (b1.t4 for Euro-ISDN). Install these file in /lib/isdn.
+
+if you configure as modules load the modules this way:
+
+insmod /lib/modules/current/misc/capiutil.o
+insmod /lib/modules/current/misc/b1.o
+insmod /lib/modules/current/misc/kernelcapi.o
+insmod /lib/modules/current/misc/capidrv.o
+insmod /lib/modules/current/misc/capi.o
+
+if you have an B1-PCI card load the module b1pci.o
+insmod /lib/modules/current/misc/b1pci.o
+and load the firmware with
+avmcapictrl load /lib/isdn/b1.t4 1
+
+if you have an B1-ISA card load the module b1isa.o
+and add the card by calling
+avmcapictrl add 0x150 15
+and load the firmware by calling
+avmcapictrl load /lib/isdn/b1.t4 1
+
+if you have an T1-ISA card load the module t1isa.o
+and add the card by calling
+avmcapictrl add 0x450 15 T1 0
+and load the firmware by calling
+avmcapictrl load /lib/isdn/t1.t4 1
+
+if you have an PCMCIA card (B1/M1/M2) load the module b1pcmcia.o
+before you insert the card.
+
+Leased Lines with B1
+--------------------
+Init card and load firmware.
+For an D64S use "FV: 1" as phone number
+For an D64S2 use "FV: 1" and "FV: 2" for multilink
+or "FV: 1,2" to use CAPI channel bundling.
