Thanks to the support I received here I now have a working system, so I thought I'd show my appreciation by posting my configuration here for anyone who's interested. Telco: KPN Telecom (Netherlands) ISDN hardware: HFC-S PCI card (Cologne chip). OS: Debian GNU/Linux stable (etch) Kernel: 2.6.18-5-k7 (for an AMD Athlon CPU) Relevant links in /etc/apt/sources.list: deb http://updates.xorcom.com/rapid etch main deb-src http://updates.xorcom.com/rapid etch main Relevant installed debian packages: asterisk 1.4.14~dfsg-0.4849 asterisk-config 1.4.14~dfsg-0.4849 asterisk-doc 1.4.14~dfsg-0.4849 asterisk-sounds-main 1.4.14~dfsg-0.4849 zaptel 1.4.7.xpp.r5178-2 zaptel-firmware 1.4.7.xpp.r5178-2 zaptel-modules-2.6.18-5-k7 1.4.7.xpp.r5178-2+2.6.18.dfsg.1-17 * zaptel-source 1.4.7.xpp.r5178-2 *) Compiled from zaptel-source using the command "m-a a-i zaptel". Note: All of these packages are from xorcom.com. Debian etch provides v1.2 of the Asterisk and Zaptel packages, which I found to be too problematic. Relevant loaded modules: xpp 89088 0 vzaphfc 24984 3 zaptel 185956 10 xpp,vzaphfc firmware_class 10048 0 crc_ccitt 2560 1 zaptel Note: The zaptel-modules package includes both the older zaphfc and the newer vzaphfc modules. If "genzaptelconf -d" is run, both get loaded, which is confusing at best. Therefore, I opted to remove the older zaphfc module. I'm not sure the xpp and firmware_class modules are necessary either: they also get loaded, but don't seem to cause any trouble. Finally, I've found that the modules I do need don't work properly unless they get loaded with the "genzaptelconf -d" command. I guess that it loads them with some parameters. /etc/asterisk/zapata.conf: [trunkgroups] [channels] context=isdn-in language=en overlapdial=yes rxwink=300 usecallerid=yes hidecallerid=no callwaiting=yes usecallingpres=yes callwaitingcallerid=yes threewaycalling=yes transfer=yes canpark=yes cancallforward=yes callreturn=yes callerid=asreceived rxgain=4.5 txgain=-3 callgroup=1 pickupgroup=1 pridialplan=unknown prilocaldialplan=unknown nationalprefix=0 internationalprefix=00 echocancel=yes echotraining=100 echocancelwhenbridged=yes faxdetect=incoming immediate=no group=1 switchtype=euroisdn signalling=bri_cpe channel=>1-2 Note: I doubt all of these settings are absolutely necessary, but this works for me.
