Thanks for the feedback - it sounds like the TDM400P is generally a well thought of card with a couple of minor problems (probably in the drivers) that aren't show stopping given the occasional power cycle.
I think I'll use it, but I am a bit concerned about the level of PC horsepower needed. It has to go in a Via EPIA system with their C3 (Nehemiah core) processor at 1.2ghz (with full speed FPU). That's supposed to be equivalent to a similarly clocked P3 or Celeron. Will than be enough grunt for the TDM400P to power a SOHO system with one telco line and three internal extensions (ie one FXO and three FXS modules)? I wish that Digium would make just a one or two page "how it works" doc about the card and card-driver interaction. What registers does it have, and what do they do? When are interrupts generated, what for, and how frequently per call? Does it use DMA, and how? What does it do well? What does it do poorly? What could be improved on in the driver? How does the driver do things? You know, just basic stuff. It's not nice having to guess from driver code, which is hard to understand (esp the DSP code), possibly bug ridden (no offence) and not guaranteed to fully utilise the card's hardware facilities. A little bit of info would make understanding the lower levels of the software much easier. _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Dev mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-dev To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-dev
