Currently I am doing the following on SuSE : First reboot the PC with asterisk disabled. This will force the creation of the devices during boot from the /etc/udev/rules.d files. Try modprobing : modprobe -v -n wctdm This does nothing but tells you what would happen. If your modprobe.d/zaptel file is correct the the output from this command will be loading of zaptel,wcfxs and an execution of ztcfg. In other words you do not have to modprobe more than one module - dependencies are sorted by the modprobe.d/zaptel file. If you want -vv on the ztcfg file edit modprobe.d/zaptel. I remember from the wiki somewhere that one must not execute ztcfg more than once and this will happen if you modprobe zaptel and then wctdm and then execute ztcfg manually. So to load modprobe -v wctdm and to unload modprobe -v -r wctdm Add these commands to your asterisk startup script This does not seem to work on Fedora - SuSE has a section on bootup 'Creating devices' that seems to pre-initialise everything - Fedora seems not to have this so one has to resort to insmodding and sleeping viz: insmod zaptel sleep 3 insmod wcfxs sleep 3 ztcfg -vv The above has been learned from experience - the loading of the driver modules for asterisk/zap seems fraught with reliability issues - in some cases the drivers load without error - at other times various errors occur - I have not yet figured out the cause of failures Paul > -- Paul Hewlett (Linux #359543) Tel: +27 21 852 8812 Cel: +27 84 420 9282 Fax: +27 86 672 0563 -- _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list Asterisk-Users@lists.digium.com http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
