Zaptel For Analog

Q1, You can not compile zaptel and asterisk

please make sure that:
1) You have installed all necessary packages and kernel source.
2) Make sure the version of kernel source is exactly same with the version of the kernel.
please check the few links:
3) make sure that you do not miss any packages or files in asterisk or zaptel.
4) make sure your system can access www.asterisk.org.

Q2, ZT_SPANCONFIG failed on span 1: Invalid argument (22)

please check:
1) run lspci -vvvvv, make sure the system can detect the card. Tiger jet chip will be found. If there is no such Tiger jet chip, please clean the PCI slot and try again.
2) if lspci can find the card, make sure the pci id is included in the PCI table in our driver.
3) if step 1 and step 2 are ok, please check the zaptel.conf or system.conf to make sure that the setting is correct.
4) if step 3 is correct, please make sure that there is no mISDN tiger jet module in the system, if it is there, please remove that or add to blacklist.
5) if you still can not boot it up, you have to recompile zaptel or dahdi again.

Q3, Where get i get zaptel?

Now you can get two versions about zaptel from our website:
http://www.openvox.cn/pub/drivers/zaptel/release/openvox_zaptel-1.2.27.tar.gz

http://www.openvox.cn/pub/drivers/zaptel/release/openvox_zaptel-1.4.12.1.tar.gz

Q4, How can you compile asterisk with zaptel

1) Download the zaptel driver from our website
2) Unpack the driver and go into the file to run make &&make install

Q5, FATAL: Module wctdm/opvxa1200/opvxa24xx not found

if this problem occurred, please make sure:
1) the module is compiled and installed properly
2) you entered a right kernel, which you used to compile the zaptel
3) make sure you have a access permission to load the module.
4) make sure the wctdm.ko/opvxa1200.ko/opvxa24xx.ko is under /lib/modules/2.6.XX/extra

Q6, check information of wctdm.ko/opvxa1200.ko/opvxa24xx.ko

Under /lib/modules/2.6.18-128.el5/misc
run command: modinfo wctdm.ko, run modinfo opvxa1200 if checking opvxa1200

Q18, Sound quality issue with wctdm/opvxa1200/opvxa24xx

you can try these possible solutions:
1) Check the IRQ, make sure system handle IRQ properly
2) Use zttest to check the result
3) Disable the X window and framebuffer(set vga=normal from grub)
4) When using IDE　driver, please open the DMA control
5) Bind the card IRQ to particular CPU, for example:
echo 1 > /proc/irq/217/smp_affinity #wcfxo
6) Set the latency timer: setpci -v -s 04:06.0 LATENCY_TIMER=f8 #wcfxo
