just to be sure that i wont destroy my box i made some photos. On
picture [1] you can see the pci slot of my box. All plugs (eth0-eth2,
power, serial, ...) are on the right side of the box, as usual. The gap
is on the right side of the pci slot. My isdn card has 2 gaps as you can
see on picture [2]. So this is really the right way to plug in the card?
I'm confused because on a 'normal' PCs pci slot i would plug the card in
like on picture [3]
