Hi

I run asterisk 1.4.2 with zaptel 1.4.1.
Zaptel is only needed for the ztdummy driver to get the Meetme()
application to work. I don't have any specific hardware.
And it does work nicely. When I reboot the machine however I have to
manually load the driver like this:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# modprobe ztdummy
Notice: Configuration file is /etc/zaptel.conf
line 0: Unable to open master device '/dev/zap/ctl'

1 error(s) detected
    

The error message is meaningless for ztdummy. Please test if you have a
working timing source with:

  zttest -v
--- Results after 28 passes ---
Best: 98.156738 -- Worst: 97.900391 -- Average: 98.024205

2% too slow? Doesn't look very accurate for a timing reference. On the other end Meetme() work like a charm.
To get rid of this error, remove the line that runs an automatic ztcfg
at the load of ztdummy:  sed -i '/ztdummy/d'
Or add /dev/null

Why would one application need a special driver? What so different about the Meetme() application? Playing a wav file doesn't need a special timing source for instance. But, I'm just a simple end user of course, not understanding all the complex details of a PBX :-)
