is this option in your kernel config /usr/src/linux/.config
CONFIG_HISAX_ASUSCOM

this is what /usr/src/linux/Documentation/Configure.help says about that
option:
HiSax Support for ASUSCOM cards
CONFIG_HISAX_ASUSCOM
  This enables HiSax support for the AsusCom and their OEM versions
  passive ISDN cards.

  See Documentation/isdn/README.HiSax on how to configure it using the
  different cards, a different D-channel protocol, or non-standard
  IRQ/port settings.
