You mixed up 2 things. The Junghanns QuadBRI board comes with a driver qozap. This means it's a zaptel device. Not a CAPI device. the chan_capi is merged with BRIStuff. This means you no longer have to download and compile chan_capi manually when you want to use a CAPI board with bristuffed asterisk. As you can see those two things have nothing to do with eachother. the quadbri is still a zap card. It's simply more convenient when you want to support only one version of asterisk and you have sites with quadbri and sites with CAPI hardware. (or sites with both quadbri and capi hardware in one machine) cheers -- Michiel van Baak [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://michiel.vanbaak.eu GnuPG key: http://pgp.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0x71C946BD "Why is it drug addicts and computer afficionados are both called users?" _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
