I have noticed in some soft phone docs that the gnome and kde sound
systems need to be turned off for the soft phone to work.  the phone
needs to work with neither gnome nor kde running.

that the softphone will find its way to the server whether or not the
computer is behind a router (dhcp).

I'm after is a phone that is working when the computer boots.  NO user
interface - all control is done through the asterisk server to which
it's connected.  also, as above, not dependent on gnome or kde - with
no graphics this should not be a problem.
