Please clarify:
Fedore Core - build with preemption off or preemption on ?
Preemptable Kernel and Voluntary Kernel Preemption should both be set to off
The way you worded it, it's almost as if you're suggesting it with it
turned on?
Sorry that I was so unclear. Too much cold medcine I think :-)
Thanks!

Subject: Re: [Asterisk-Users] Zaptel module load errors under
stock FedoraCore 2 (2.6.8-1.521 kernel )
Just a reminder, if you are using the stock fedora kernel I'd
recommend rebuilding it without preemption turned off as I've
experience kernel panics from the zaptel driver. Digium tech
support agrees (or at least did a few weeks ago) that is was
a problem.

Got it, that was it. Thank you so much Adam.
For those searching, here's the solution:
vi /usr/src/linux-2.6/Makefile
Remove the word 'custom' from the version information.
If you've been following along at home, you'll need to
`make clean` in
the kernel source directory. Then, `make prepare-all`. Granted,
`make clean` probably isn't really required, but I do it
too often to
avoid problems.
Then, go `make clean` in the zap directory, and `make
linux26`, `make
install`, and we're gold.
Thanks again for your help Adam.

Thank you, Adam. I think I see how to do that ( the
kernel Makefile
has that version information. So either I just change that and
recompile zap, or I have to recompile the kernel AND zap.
As long as
it works, I'm happy ).
Question: I can force the zaptel module to load, but I
can't force
the wcfxo module. Would this indicate that it's not finding the
hardware card, or would this module load regardless of the
hardware
in the machine?
Thank you again.

This appears to be a module version mismatch. Notice that the
kernel is linux-2.6.8-1.521 but the modules are 2.6.8-1.521custom.
This means you need to remake your modules or your kernel to get
them to match. Also, you should try rebuilding the kernel with
preemption turned off. It helps avoid a zaptel crash.

Hi folks, start to finish, this is what I did:
cd /usr/src/linux-2.6.8-1.521
make prepare-all
cd ..
wget http://www.asterisk.org/zaptel-1.0.0.tar.gz
tar xfsz zaptel-1.0.0.tar.gz
cd zaptel-1.0.0
less README
less README.Linux26 ( see, I really did RTFM ;) ) ln -s
/usr/src/linux-2.6.8-1.521 /usr/src/linux-2.6 mv
/lib/modules/`uname -r`/build /lib/modules/`uname
-r`/build.bak (
There was a preexisting build directory ) ln -s
/usr/src/linux-2.6.8-1.521 /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build make
linux26 make install modprobe wcfxo
And this is what I get when I try to load the modules:
WARNING: Error inserting zaptel

And this shows up in my /var/log/messages:

Me being me, and this being a test machine, I tried `modprobe -f
wcfxo`, and this is what I got:
FATAL: Error inserting wcfxo
(/lib/modules/2.6.8-1.521/misc/wcfxo.ko): Invalid module format
FATAL: Error running install command for wcfxo
Now, as to what I am trying to do: I have a generic
intel 537 card
that I was hoping to use as a generic fxo(?). It works on Suse
9.1, but I am running into problems on this fc2 box. I
imagine if
I can just get the zaptel module to load without any
brute force,
I'd be ok.
Any help that can be offered I greatly apprecaite.
