[Asterisk-Users] chan_capi 0.3 and capiinit questions

[Klaus-Peter Junghanns]

Hi,

1) you are doing "capiinit stop/start" while * is running?????
do you think that unloading a device driver while * is still
running is a good idea? ;-)

2) there is no (clean) way to determine if another application
is using a B channel. However you will get a "circuit-busy" 
reason back from capi, if you hack that into chan_capi / * you
might be able to recognize that the outgoing call failed because
all B channels are in use.

regards
