 This is more a question for asterisk-users, but there are certain
applications (app_meetme) that require ztdummy if you don't already
have a valid Zaptel timing source. They will not operate without it.

[Asterisk-Dev] ztdummy? is it necessary?

2005-12-28 Thread Jason DiCioccio
Greetings,
  I was having a conversation with someone the other day and was informed
that ztdummy is basically unnecessary in BSD and perhaps in more recent
linux kernels.  Is this indeed the case?  Would you need to run asterisk
at a realtime priority for this to work?  Getting rid of the ztdummy
requirement would be an amazing win for OS portability, as long as it
could rely on the OS's realtime timer.
