Also using the -p (real time option) to start asterisk, may also help.

Carlos, You may have something here. Dan - you might try to connect via the virtual network adapter to your "host" machine's hard drive. (just map a drive) it could be that "networking" from your "VM" to the host is faster. James Taylor

Dan,

What type of "virtual harddisk" did you create in your linux vmware virtual machine? As far as I know, the default type is a kind of compressed harddisk image, to save disk space in the host machine. Perhaps that is the answer to have bad performance only in local services, opening local files in vmware: the overhead to decompress.

Nice!
If it can work without connecting it to the power supply, then will be
better..;-)
When we leave the home, I must disconnect from the mains EVERYTHING (the
alarm system and the HA PC are the only accepted exceptions)...

Hey Dan,

Get a http://www.mini-itx.com/ and disguise it as a fruit bowl. She'll

never

know! I can't wait until someone builds one looking like a shoe or a

handbag

and then I can have them all over the house and the more I have, the

happier

the other half will be!!

Roy,

Please do not give me such a solution. I know how and where to buy or how to build a very cheap PC (I work in

this

field). I now that this is a cheaper option (to buy or build a new pc), but I

don't
want another computer running 24/7 in my house.
It is so difficult to understand that?
I have a small flat with two rooms. I want to be able to sleep too in the
same house.
My wife for sure will not accept another one...
I feel that it can fully work on my config (allmost it does it now).
It is more challenging to make it work under those circumstances...;-)
Why to choose everytime the easiest solution available?
I want to do it for my ..soul...;-)
Best regards, Dan P.S. I have several PCs available for this, but.. I DON'T WANT TO USE
THEM!

IIRC you were given URLs for all sorts of cheapo PCs. Perhaps you've got
an old P90 lying around? Or perhaps someone else has?
Use that!
Not vmware!
If you're to use vmware, do it the other way around - linux host with
vmware windoze guest. This works fine for me on my PC.

Hi,

I have succeed using Asterisk on VMWare on an [EMAIL PROTECTED] with 128 MB allocated for the Linux virtual machine. I have connected this PBX with another one using IAX/GSM. I can call
the

other part and the sound is great, without any interruption. The phone used is a Cisco7960 with G.711, so still a codec conversion

is

in

place (GSM/G.711) and Asterisk/VMWare Wkst performs very well.

The problem is only when I try to call local services, like echo test

or

Digium Demo. Then, the sound of the informative message for the Digium

Demo

is choppy, but the sound from the Digium server (after connection) is

very

good.

So.. the problem is only to play local files when in virtual machine

(menus,

informative messages, etc.). Why? It is clear that this is not a

computer

performance issue and/or a timing problem during the codec conversion. More, the inband DTMF works like a charm under the virtual machine.

Even
the

known problem with double digits for Cisco phones dissapear.

BR, Dan P.S. Please do not answer again that this setup cannot work. In this

moment
I cannot accept such an answer.
