Hello 1. I don't have deep knowledge of either Linux or Asterisk, but I seem to have successfully installed 1.4 with Zaptel (for support for an OpenVox PCI FXO card) on a stock Ubuntu 7.04 Server Edition:
======== dmesg ========== [ 25.990943] Zapata Telephony Interface Registered on major 196 [ 25.990948] Zaptel Version: 1.4.5.1 [ 25.990950] Zaptel Echo Canceller: MG2 [ 27.523605] ztdummy: RTC rate is 1024 [ 34.720147] Zaptel Transcoder support loaded ======== dmesg ========== One thing though: When I boot up, I see the following error message on the screen (no trace dmesg or /var/log/messages): =================== udevd : lookup_user : specified user 'asterisk' unknown =================== By looking at /etc/udev/rules.d/zaptel.rules, I guess there was a step missing in the instructions I read on how to compile Zaptel, and assume I have to add a user/group for "asterisk"? 2. More generally, I found missing or possibly outdated information on how to go and install the Zaptel module to support PCI cards, so I'm not positive I did everything right: =================== 1. Compile and install Zaptel: cd zaptel-1.4.5.1 ./configure make clean make make zttool make install make config => (here, says "If you have any zaptel hardware it is now recommended to edit /etc/default/zaptel or /etc/sysconfig/zaptel and set there an optimal value for the variable MODULES") 2. Compile and install Asterisk: cd /usr/src/asterisk-1.4.2 ./configure make clean make make install make samples make config cd /usr/src/asterisk-addons ./configure make clean make make install make samples 3. create /etc/zaptel.conf edit /etc/asterisk/zapata.conf edit /etc/asterisk/extensions.conf 4. install ztdummy: echo "ztdummy" >> /etc/modules modprobe ztdummy =================== Did I do it right? Am I missing something? Thank you. _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com-- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
