heh. I forgot that last time I did this I was running windows. so,
right now I'm googling on the linux driver. in the meantime, I'm
having trouble with my VOIP providers website, at
<http://www.telnetphone.ca/> in that it keeps reloading; mozilla would
appear to be caught in some sort of endless loop.

speaking of windows, windows2000 won't boot, for whatever reason. I
believe I tried re-installing windows (which gums up GRUB, naturally),
but the re-install didn't work (this was months ago). I might take
another look at what happened with regards to installing windows on its
partition.

while the NIC was "magically" recognized and easily configured (I'm
using eth1 at the moment for the internet connection, which is what I
just purchased) the VOIP telephone adapter isn't, which I should've
looked into yesterday. on reboot eth0 gave a "IP identification..," if
I recall correctly, so the adapter needs a driver. will that require a
kernel re-compile?

or, do I just use <http://www.asterisk.org/>? I have a PAP2, not a
mic/speakers setup.

the telephone adapter:
