I have * with i4l installed and working - on a dumb eicon card. It seems in order to get DTMF out of the BRI (for business banking - etc) - I should change from i4l drivers to capi drivers. wiki help seems to be for the Fritz card only...??? I have ticked the suggested boxes in 'menuconfig', explored the capi4linux websites - etc... but am missing some magic. I've "modprobe capi", if I don't "modprobe hisax type=11" to get- HiSax: Card 1 Protocol EDSS1 Id=HiSax (0) HiSax: Eicon.Diehl Diva driver Rev. 1.1.4.2 ... then whet am I meant to do instead? Obviously no *.... (load_module: CAPI not installed!) A pointer in the right direction please? ie - does the Dumb EICON card work with capi?, do I need the server eicon card instead?, is CAPI only working with Fritz's cards? -- . . ___. .__ Posix Systems - Sth Africa /| /| / /__ mje@posix.co.za - Mark J Elkins, Cisco CCIE / |/ |ARK \_/ /__ LKINS Tel: +27 12 807 0590 Cell: +27 82 601 0496 -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

You can't at present use chan_capi with any other card. If the eicon card is based on the HFC chipset you may be able to use the zaphfc drivers and address it as a native zaptel device. Take a look at http://www.junghanns.net/asterisk/ for "bristuff" Otherwise consider buying a cheap second hand fritz (AKA BT speedway card) or hfc chipset card from ebay. There are usually quite a few available. regards, -- Julien
