Hi Chawki,

yes you can. You will habe to create the appropriate Extension to Dial 
out and you will have to have a look at the oss.conf or alsa.conf (and 
that the oss- or alsa-Module is loaded)

After enabling the local Soundcard this way you can simply type "dial 
<Extension>" on your local console and be happy.

HTH,

Christoph
