Every ring of my phone is timestamped in /var/log/mgetty/mg_ttyS1.log thus: 05/07 09:17:38 yS1 waiting... 05/07 09:46:19 yS1 waiting for ``RING'' ** found ** 05/07 09:46:19 yS1 waiting for ``RING'' ** found ** 05/07 09:46:22 yS1 waiting for ``RING'' ** found ** 05/07 09:46:25 yS1 waiting for ``RING'' ** found ** 05/07 09:46:28 yS1 waiting for ``RING'' ** found ** 05/07 09:46:31 yS1 waiting for ``RING'' ** found ** 05/07 09:46:34 yS1 waiting for ``RING'' ** found ** 05/07 09:46:37 yS1 waiting for ``RING'' ** found ** 05/07 09:46:40 yS1 send: ATA[0d] Or is it the precise number of rings that's important to you? I'm not convinced that the number of rings I hear in the earpiece precisely matches what's being "heard" and logged at the other end.
