I was following Digium's instructions to the letter to install g729. but
upon telling asterisk to load the module, the system hung.

after a few minutes later a CTRL-C and attempted to run the command again.
Same result. any g729 show command returns nothing... no error no results.

Reboot the server and asterisk will not process calls. Freepbx shows the
following.

[2012-Oct-18 01:21:04] [INFO] (bin/retrieve_conf:109) - found language dir
fr for directory, not installed on system, skipping
[2012-Oct-18 01:21:07] [FATAL] (libraries/utility.functions.php:429) -
retreive_conf failed to get engine information and cannot configure up a
softwitch with out it. Error: ERROR-UNABLE-TO-PARSE
[2012-Oct-18 01:21:07] [CRITICAL] (admin/functions.inc.php:366) -
[NOTIFICATION]-[freepbx]-[RCONFFAIL] - retrieve_conf failed, config not

This seems to indicate that the g729 module is working
