Bug#427812: Please include Sangoma patches
fixed 1:1.4.0~dfsg-1 thanks As of 1.4 Zaptel supports hardhdlc, which is basically what this patch was aiming for. As of some version (don't remember exactly), the Sangoma drivers no longer need to patch Zaptel. -- Tzafrir Cohen icq#16849755 jabber:tzafrir.co...@xorcom.com +972-50-7952406 mailto:tzafrir.co...@xorcom.com http://www.xorcom.com iax:gu...@local.xorcom.com/tzafrir -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

There used to be a wanpipe package in Debian (it was in potato - 2.2, but abandoned later). Those drivers have a crazy build system (e.g: it insists on patching the kernel sources). If someone with the hardware would like to work with me on such a package, I'm willing to help. Maybe even on integrating this within Zaptel. But I really cannot promise something that will actually work. Thanks for the info. I have done my best to explain all this to the people at Sangoma in the hope that they will step forward and help you out with this. They did tell me that they are going to support hardware HDLC without patching zaptel which may improve things. One more thing that seems to be confusing me is that the Debian Linux kernel images already contain a file called wanrouter.ko? -- Ben Thompson -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Bug#427812: Please include Sangoma patches
Package: zaptel-source Version: 1.2.11.dfsg-1 Severity: wishlist Please could you include the patches needed to allow the Sangoma Wanpipe drivers to interoperate with Zaptel. We chose Sangoma interface cards because they are cheaper than Diguim and they are available in low profile PCI-Express options, which Digium do not offer. However they do require that extra modules are installed and there is a shell script provided by Sangoma which attempts to patch and reinstall the zaptel modules. The script is tries to help debian users by providing an option to build a deb package for the Wanpipe drivers. This does not play nicely with the module-assistant way of doing things and it would be so much easier for Debian users if the patches where already included. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

There are two parts for this: The Sangoma driver includes a little patch for Zaptel. An old version of it is included in Zaptel, but not applied.
