asterisk users - Feb 2009 - using an eicon diva server card with asterisk.

I have just acquired an eicon diva server BRI-2M card for using with asterisk
and hylafax.
Of course i installed it in a new server with Debian Lenny wich has a kernel
2.6.26+

I have downloaded the latest drivers (9.0) from the Eicon web site and i'm
having trouble
compiling them, specifically the divaTTY driver i need to use with hylafax in
the same server.

On the icon web site there is a note saying that the drivers, when used with a
kernel 2.6.26+
needs a "manual intervention" to install or wait for the next version
wich was due on
18 Dec. 2008 but is not yet published.

Nowhere in the driver files not in the eicon website is any info to be found
regarding this
manual intervention or some notes about the trouble i must expect compiling the
drivers.

Has anyone some info about this problem and is willing to share some pointers?

and also, is anyone using the DIVACAPI asterisk channel that eicon is releasing
with the drivers?

thank you wery much.
