Hi,
I'm new to Linphone, and have a couple of general questions. I use
Debian Linux, and, as I'm totally blind, I use a text-based terminal
rather than a GUI.
I'm after a tty-based softphone which will do acoustic echo cancellation
(so I can use speakers and a reasonably powerful microphone, rather than
headphones etc.), and which is able to send DTMF digits. It seems that
the Asterisk console doesn't satisfy these two requirements, much to my
surprise (perhaps it's more for testing than for serious use); am I right
in believing that Linphonec does satisfy both?
The current stable release of Debian includes linphone-nox 1.5.1. I've
tried to run linphonec from an ssh session, but get a series of errors:
first I get a warning that my machine seems to be on an IPV6 network
(actually, it isn't...); strangely, when I tried to capture the output
with 'linphonec &>/tmp/linphonec.out' this warning disappeared.
I then get a series of errors about certain devices not being found
(details included below), after which linphonec segfaults.
As far as the devices are concerned, I'm a bit puzzled; I'm using udev,
which is standard on Debian, but I didn't want it to do any video
anyway...
Details of errors:
---------------------- DirectFB v0.9.25 ---------------------
(c) 2000-2002 convergence integrated media GmbH
(c) 2002-2004 convergence GmbH
-----------------------------------------------------------
(*) DirectFB/Core: Single Application Core. (2006-12-04 07:38)
(*) Direct/Memcpy: Using SSE optimized memcpy()
(!) Direct/Util: opening '/dev/fb0' and '/dev/fb/0' failed
--> No such file or directory
(!) DirectFB/FBDev: Error opening framebuffer device!
(!) DirectFB/FBDev: Use 'fbdev' option or set FRAMEBUFFER environment variable.

--> Initialization error!
ortp-error-Couldn't initialize SDL: DirectFBCreate: Initialization error!
ortp-error-MSV4l: cannot open video device (/dev/video0): No such file or
directory.
Any suggestions much appreciated!
Best wishes,
Nikhil.
