Hi,
In struggling to get the quicknet PhoneJack Card to work with kernel 2.6.33-gentoo and asterisk-1.6.5.2, I descovered that /dev/phone0 doesn't get created after phonedev and ixj modules have been loaded.
I guess some udev rules would have to be written for that to work.
But even if one manually creates /dev/phone0 with major 100 and minor 0 the drivers phonedev and ixj do not use it, the file /etc/modules.conf having:
alias char-major-100 phonedev
alias char-major-100-0 ixj
It is evidenced with the fact that asterisk-1.6.5.2 does not load itself correctly giving errors about phone0: unable to register channel.
So after trial and error method I figured that:
| Code: | | mknod /dev/ixj0 c 100 0 |
is a better solution.
After phone.conf in asterisk is set to:
| Code: | | device => /dev/ixj0 |
one can enjoy asterisk with a quicknet PhoneJack Card.
I wonder why the ixj and phonedev modules do not react to /dev/phone0 character device under dev directory but they do so for ixj0.
Or perhaps I am missing here the whole point and someone could shed some other light on this case?
thank you for any input
