[asterisk-users] Dahdi will not compile on Unbuntu Studio Linux 9.10 (Karmic) 32bit

[Steve Gladden]

Thanks for responding..

So that explains why it won't compile eh?
And wow Kevin...
I'm curious how much work would it be and would it be worth it?
I've always imagined RT kernels would be excellent for asterisk.
I've also wondered why it appears not to have been done 'out there'
Or discussed very much.
