Yes, same issue here. I'm not a programmer, so my comments are based on observations only. For whatever reason, the TDM card is far more sensitive to analog line activities then was the x100p. Simply taking a bridged analog phone off hook and back on hook causes the TDM card to assume the phone is ringing. Also, female voices on the analog side tend to be interpreted as ringing as well (that's with callprogress=no). > If you want further details, I can give them to you, but suffice it to say > that trying to work with both cards and both modules has been > incredibly frustrating.

System has been mostly stable for over six months in terms of processing calls, but doing 'service zaptel stop' and start (after stopping *) leads to unpredictable results. Usually can get by with one or two, but anything after that leads to failures that require a system reboot. The exact number varies. Other observations tend to suggest echo cancellation is not any better on the TDM compared to the x100p, and the amount of echo seems to change from time to time with no noticable correlation to other system events. CallerID on the TDM seems to be less reliable then the x100p (more ID's showing up as 'asterisk' when a bridged analog phone receives the ID's just fine). I'm using three pstn lines from two different central offices and two different ring cadences. Inbound and outbound calls are processed correctly, and echo (and other unusual * activities) is the same across all three lines. (The TDM card runs on a dedicated interrupt, and CVS-HEAD-05/28/04.) Unplugging a pstn line from the TDM card (and reconnecting) creates some rather unusual events too. Guess its time to open a bug report even though we don't have any significant technical data that would help debug the problems.
