[Asterisk-Users] Re: Anyone aware of a current Dell servermodelwith 3PCI slots
As a side note: Don't expect to use a TDM400P card with any of the S110M modules; the PE2850 does not have any internal power connectors to connect to the PCI card. Kinda bummed me out. And yes, you can (kind of) set the PCI IRQs in the BIOS. And Dell's network cards do seem to have IRQ conflicts, though I was under the impression that the 2850s were resolved with respect to this (the 2650s do not work with Digium cards, but the 2850 should be fine.) I haven't actually gotten asterisk working on this setup, mind you, I'm still waiting on some VoIP phones to come in via UPS... -- RYAN AMOS System Administrator FINETOOTH THE CONTRACT INTELLIGENCE COMPANY phone 512.637.3530 fax 512.637.3501 mobile 512.484.6577 email RAMOS@FINETOOTH.COM WWW.FINETOOTH.COM -----Original Message----- From: asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of pdhales@optusnet.com.au Sent: Wednesday, November 02, 2005 4:04 PM To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion Subject: Re: [Asterisk-Users] Re: Anyone aware of a current Dell servermodelwith 3PCI slots I know of an install using a 2850 where it ran much better after they disabled the onboard network card.
