This is partly correct. Let me try to explain: - both packages contain the same divas driver (they are based on the same sources and firmware) - the Eicon package is a RPM which patches your kernel for compliation of the drivers, the melware package just uses the kernel build-system, but doesn't modify your kernel. - the Eicon package includes additional drivers and files which are not used with the melware-package or because of closed-source nature. (E.g. web-conf: not used with melware; DIVA-TTY driver: closed source; ...) - Both packages can be used for asterisk, trixbox, etc. The difference is that the melware-package is also provided as precompiled RPM for trixbox. (Most people have problems compiling from source ;-) - melware package also contains the current version of the diva2i4l driver for kernel 2.6 (to use old isdn4linux devices with new divas driver). > Also, when I try to reconfigure the Diva card I get the following message: > > Update CFGLib information ... failed > > > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------DIVA > CONFIGURATION: CFGLib DRIVER LOAD FAILED PLEASECHECK > SYSTEM INSTALLATION (kernel version, missingfiles) > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------DIVAS4LINUX > SHUTDOWN OK.Is this because I'm using the melware divas4linux with Asterisk or > is theresome other problem?Any advice is appreciated.RegardsCameron Which version is that? It should not happen again, when you do divas_stop.rc divas_cfg.rc and should be fixed in latest melware .tgz BTW: do you know that you can do conferencing with CAPI and non-CAPI channels with chan-capi and divas now? The onboard DSPs will be used for mixing the voice. I'm currently cloning/adapting app_meetme to work with chan-capi.
