Don't use the drivers that came with the board, use the drivers 
that came with your unix; they are more up to date.  That is,
just run kconfig and enable the drivers that were loaded with
the system.

I am using a 2 1/2 year old ICC board under ISC Unix 2.2.1 and
have moderate success.  The only problem which I seem to be
having is that after an outgoing call, the channel DTR will 
not come back up to enable incoming calls.
