[Asterisk-Users] FC3 + udev + Asterisk v1.0.3 - Temporary Fix

[Raymond McKay]

I haven't seen anybody so far post a complex fix for the udev problems on 
FC3 with the latest kernel.  On that note, I have a temporary fix to allow 
zaptel to load somewhat normally.  I found that modifying the zaptel script 
to 1) load, unload, then load the driver modules and 2) insert a pause 
between modules seems to allow things to work.  This assumes you have 
followed the instructions and modified the udev rules and permissions as 
documented on the wiki.  Also, you may need to modify the length of the 
sleep statements depending on the speed of your system.  Modified zaptel 
init script as follows

#!/bin/sh
#
# zaptel        This shell script takes care of loading and unloading \
#               Zapata Telephony interfaces
# chkconfig: 2345 9 92
# description: The zapata telephony drivers allow you to use your linux \
# computer to accept incoming data and voice interfaces
#
# config: /etc/sysconfig/zaptel

# Source function library.
. /etc/rc.d/init.d/functions

[ -f /etc/sysconfig/zaptel ] || exit 0

# Source zaptel configuration.
. /etc/sysconfig/zaptel

# Check that telephony is up.
if [ "${TELEPHONY}" = "no" ]; then
 exit 0
fi

[ -f /sbin/ztcfg ] || exit 0

[ -f /etc/zaptel.conf ] || exit 0

RETVAL=0

exit $RETVAL


Hopes this helps anybody else trying to implement on a FC3 base.
