There is no easy answer to your question. If you ask me, I prefer not
to use any patches, except that I am forced to use bristuff because I
have quadBRI ISDN cards. Bristuff patches Zaptel in order to enable
using quadBRI and octoBRI cards, and also adds some features to *.

Like you said, really valuable patches will make it to the CVS sooner
or later, so I prefer to wait because it makes installation and
maintenance easier.<br>

I use Gentoo with 2.6 kernel. I am not sure whether you will get any
benefits from upgrading, but I didn't have any problems with it (except
that I had to migrate from devfs to udev, but that issue exists with
2.4 kernel too).<br>

<p class="MsoNormal"><font face="Arial" size="2"><span
style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;">I usually use the latest
stable CVS, with no patches or
modifications. If figured if there was a worthwhile patch, Mark would
have already
included it. However, there was that neat patch about being able to
press a
certain key and it’d begin recording in mid-stream, that was an awesome
feature and I patched my latest features.c file with that patch. But I
keep
seeing mentions of other patches, specifically something about the MOH
patch, the
BRISTUFFED patch, and now I’m hearing about a “Super Parking Lot”
patch? For now I’ve been using the mpg123 method, it tends to work for
me, but if I can save CPU/RAM and other troubles by using another
format, which
one do I go with? What is BRISTUFFED? And if I’m right, the super
parking
lot patch allows for call parking based on context, a way to break it
apart,
instead of making it universal across the whole system (where can I
find this
patch)? <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><font face="Arial" size="2"><span
style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;">So I’m going to ask the
question, if I were to install
the latest CVS Stable tonight, which patches should I install on it
before
compiling? Also, I’m using Gentoo Linux, with the 2.4.26-r9 gentoo
kernel.
I’ve seen issues with people making Asterisk work perfectly with the
2.6
kernel so I’ve stayed clear of it, but I still see people fighting to
make it work and such, I saw one post a while back about the benefits
using
Asterisk w/ the 2.6 kernel, can somebody please refresh my memory? What
are the
benefits of using Asterisk with the 2.6 kernel? I’m trying to get the
most out of my system. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

be greatly appreciated. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
