You didn't say, but my highly tuned mind reading powers tell me
that you're in Bulgaria.

The Caller*ID is geared toward the North American (Bellcore) system
and won't work with anything else.  You'll find a patch in the bug
tracker that creates support for UK (BT) Caller*ID.

If you know the details of your telco's Caller*ID system then you
could possibly hack in the support yourself.  Perhaps the UK patch
would help as a starting point;  You could add some code to handle
"usecallerid = bg", for instance.
