asterisk users - Nov 2003 - Problem with the Internet LineJACK ISA card...

Hi Andrei

Probably the wrong place to ask that particular question, however...

What you probably want to do is grab the nixj driver from cvs on 
openh323.org.  It's a much better driver than the one currently shipped 
in the kernel.  While you're at it, get nsdk too, so you can test the card.

There is a new version of the driver coming out shortly and sometime 
after that, there are plans to ask that the driver in the kernel tree be 
replaced with the new driver.

Hi,

Now that I have these QuickNet cards working (I have enabled ISA PnP and
voila`!), I need to set up VoIP to PSTN gatewaying... And what I need to
ask you is whether I am able to do this with one QuickNet LineJack card
or not?..

Another question: is there any good documentation (any HOWTO-style
papers) about setting up asterisk, especially as a gateway?

The existing documentation, available from the Asterisk web-site, is too
generic and, unfortunately, doesn't lead me to clear understanding of the
way
this all works... :( Although I do want to understand it. :)

Any help would be appreciated...

All the best,

You also appear to have a big problem with your clock... 

unless you are from the future.. in which case how are Glaxo stocks doing?

Hi,

I'm having problems with setting up my ISA LineJack card on Linux
machine... I've done everithing according to documentation available, by
compiling the new ixj driver (v1.2.1), loading it, adding device node
/dev/phone0 with major number 100 and minor number 0, adding aliases
into the /etc/modules.conf:

alias char-major-100 phonedev
alias char-major-100-0 ixj

and running depmod afterwards... The kernel is 2.4.21, compiled without
ISA PnP support and with (presumably older) ixj and phonedev drivers
enabled as modules. The permissions for /dev/phone0 are OK.

"isapnp" tool from Debian unstable seems to detect the card and here
is
what the /etc/isapnp.conf says (excluding the comments):

(CONFIGURE QTI0300/857146258 (LD 0
(IO 0 (SIZE 16) (BASE 0x0300))
(IO 1 (SIZE 8)  (BASE 0x0300))
 (NAME "QTI0300/857146258[0]{Internet LineJACK Audio}")
(ACT Y)
))

The exact error, that Linux tells is: "No such device" as if the
device
wasn't configured (or the driver module not loaded/enabled). That's
pretty confusing... This error is given even if I try to write
anything to the /dev/phone0 device node like this:

cat > /dev/phone0

What am I missing?

PS. If this is not the right place to ask this question, could you
point me to the right place, please?..

All the best,
Andrei
