[hsflinux] hsf driver for suse 2.4.18-64GB i686

[Frank]

Tony,

Thanks for your reply.
So the kernel isn't the limitation for that driver. It is the architecture
of my computer, right?
I am curious what prevents that driver, written for i386 , working with my
i686 arch?
Probably I have to be patient until a driver for my system comes out. Or buy
a real modem.

regards,

Frank
