This should work fine with ISDN4Linux as it uses the Hisax chipset.  Get
it working first as a normal ISDN card, then add Asterisk.  Look at
/etc/asterisk/modem.conf, it will need to contain something like this:

[interfaces]
context=inbound
driver=i4l
language=en
type=autodetect
stripmsd=0
dialtype=tone
mode=immediate
msn=yourMSNhere
group=9
dtmfmode=asterisk
incomingmsn=*
device => /dev/ttyI0
device => /dev/ttyI1

You _WILL_ need to set your MSN (change yourMSNhere to your full MSN,
usually without the area code).

HTH
