+modules oder static?
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+In general it's ok to compile all ISDN/CAPI stuff into the kernel.
+But I suggest to compile at least all card drivers as a module.
+That includes the 'capidrv' driver! That way it's much easier to
+change a card and/or unload the driver if needed.

+hotplug or hardwired?
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+Gentoo supports hotplug for CAPI-Cards. Just plug in your card,
+wait for the beep (if enabled in /etc/conf.d/capi) and check with
+'capiinfo' if your card is available to the CAPI subsystem.
+
+If you have more than one card and/or depend on services like
+'capi4hylafax' or 'isdnlog', it's better to disable hotplug in
+/etc/conf.d/capi and configure your card(s) in /etc/capi.conf.
+
+You can always check what card(s) are loaded with
+
+ /etc/init.d/capi info
+
+If you stopped CAPI with
+
+ /etc/init.d/capi stop
+
+you have to unplug all USB-cards to re-initialize them again.
+Ok, reboot is another option. ;-) Using only hotplug, you can
+plug in and out your card as often as you want.
