This code is really alpha, and i know what i'm talking about. Stefan
said, that the interactive response is better than before but exactly
there are still problems (i suspect they are in the interrupt handling
code of the HSCX) which have to be solved. The isdnd has to be debugged
more and has to be made much more stable than it currenly is. There
is almost no error recovery mechanism (with the exception what is
specified in the standards itself) available. And this list can be
continued for a long time - it is alpha code, give it a bit time and
the eyes of some people who don't dream already at night of IRQ
handling routines for not quite documented Siemens chipsets in totally
undocumented card designs.
