Iaxcomm probably fails because it can't open the sound device. You need 
to find out if you use ALSA or OSS. Try to run cat 
/proc/asound/version in a terminal. That will output Advanced Linux 
Sound Architecture Driver.. if you use ALSA.


Iaxcomm requires OSS support, and you need to load the snd_pcm_oss with 
modprobe snd_pcm_oss as root if you use ALSA (aoss doesn't work well 
with iaxcomm).


Another program may be using the sound card which prevents iaxcomm from 
using it, unless you have a card that has a hardware mixer.
