Has anyone had any experience with the Asterisk on a SuSe 10 platform? I'm currently using FC3 but because we use SuSe within other parts of the business I'm being pushed to changed the OS.

My reccomendation..... if it's not broke, then don't fix it. Unless your getting in al new hardware, then maybe do the switch, but until then, tell your boss, or whover is calling the shots, that the system works, and until there is a major flaw, or a major reason to switch other, other than just for the sake of it.... I would leave it as it. On 1/24/06, Lee Archer <lee.archer@pentagon-systems.com> wrote:> > > Has anyone had any experience with the Asterisk on a SuSe 10 platform?

My development and demo boxes are SuSE 10. Both run great. I do however usually tweak the RPM that came with it to add in a few patches. If you are comfortable with running Asterisk 1.0.9 then the RPM works very well. SuSE always seems to really think things through when they package applications. For running something newer than Asterisk 1.0.9 SuSE 10 is also works fine. For your own sanity you'll want to not install/uninstall the SuSE Asterisk RPMs. One possible gotcha: be careful of possibly conflicting kernel modules in /lib/modules/`uname -r`/extra as the Zaptel drivers are not part of any Asterisk package but rather the kernel. The zaptel compile from source installs modules to /lib/modules/`uname -r`/misc so you'll want to delete the files in extra. You'll also have to remember that each time you update the kernel RPM. Hope that helps. The bottom line from me is Thumbs Up. /BAK/
Thanks, I've got it running on my test box but didn't know if there was any global objection to using it. I've had a few funnies with it but that might be down to Supermicro and P4's with the EM64T thing.

I downloaded the source and built it from that. SuSE10 comes with a version of asterisk 1.0.X on the DVD.

I have installed asterisk under RH and I am switching over to SuSE OSS 10.0. I could not find the "rpm" for asterisk. My searches show that the rpm is available for the commercial version of SuSE. _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- Asterisk-Users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users ########################################### This message has been scanned by F-Secure Anti-Virus for Microsoft Exchange.
