The sort answer is no. The ztdummy code is written specifically for usb-uhci and usb-ohci operates in an entirely different way. However, there is an alternative to ztdummy that uses the real-time clock. Take a look at zaprtc from here http://www.junghanns.net/asterisk/page1.html Iain

I think the problem is more fundamental than this. The state machine in the X100P assumes that nothing at all happens before a ring - so it will simply ignore everything (eg UK caller ID tones) until it gets that first ring to wake it up. Handling UK caller ID needs a re-write of the X100P
