AW: [Asterisk-Users] Debian Sarge, Kernel 2.6.13 and AVM Fritz!PCI v2.0 card

[Rainer Maier]

Hi Jon,
perfect instructions, thank you very much.
I used them and after some tests they worked.

Here is what I did. Maybe someone could use it completely:
------------------------------------------------------------
Install helpers: 
apt-get install kernel-package ncurses-dev fakeroot wget bzip2 

Go to usr directory: 
cd /usr/src
wget http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/linux-2.6.13.1.tar.bz2 

Unpack the kernel sources and change into directory: 
tar xjf linux-2.6.13.1.tar.bz2
ln -s /usr/src/linux-2.6.13.1 /usr/src/linux cd linux/ 

copy /boot/config-2.v.v.v to /usr/src/linux/.
It is normally a good idea to take the configuration of your existing
(working!) kernel 2.6 as a starting point for the configuration of your new
kernel. Usually the current kernel configuration is saved in a file under
/boot, e.g. /boot/config-2.6.3. We will load this configuration and then do
the changes we desire. 

make oldconfig
make menuconfig
check for ->fs->EXT2 ->driver->ATA is included in kernel make
OR:
Load alternative config (i.e. config-2.v.v.v) and then store the new one. 
make

Then run the following commands (please note that make dep is not needed any
more for kernel 2.6): 
make-kpkg kernel_image 

If no error occurs you will find the new kernel as a Debian package called
kernel-image-2.6.x.x_custom.1.0_i386.deb under /usr/src. 
cd ../ 

Install new kernel: 
dpkg -i kernel-image-2.6.13.1_i386.deb 

Create a ramdisk of your new kernel (otherwise your system will most likely
not boot): 
cd /boot/
mkinitrd -o /boot/initrd.img-2.6.13.1 2.6.13.1 reboot

Then I run your procedures.
I think I would not have needed the CVS system maybe except for the updates
of packets in the future.
I could have downloaded it directly from isdn4linux.
But anyhow, all drivers are loaded now.

I still have the problem that asterisk complains he could not load
chan_capi.c there would not be any CAPI installed.
Any idears why and how I could get it running. 
I must admit I don't have a clue how asterisks knows of exactly this file.

Hi Rainer,

Good news for you - I have got a single fritz going under 2.6.13 today. My
problem is I need two fritz to go under 2.6.13 and am having problems
acheiving that.

Anyway, stuff for you to do.

Ignore the AVM instructions.  

Download the misdn drivers using this script and cvs - the password is
readonly.

#!/bin/bash
  export CVSROOT=:pserver:anonymous at cvs.isdn4linux.de:/i4ldev
  cvs login
  cvs -z9 co mISDN # <-comment out after you made a checkout
  #cvs -q -z9 update -dPA # <- and uncomment this for updating

the find the script in the msidn called std2kern and run it

this will place the misdn source code into the 2.6.13 source directory.

This fire up make menuconfig for 2.6.13 and find the isdn/misdn/hardware
screen and select the avmfritz stuff, plus all the capi stuff as well.

Then build the modules and install the modules.


Then once all is done, run this script to load the modules (basically order
is everything supposedly).


#!/bin/sh
if [ $# -ge 1 ]; then
        DEBUG=$1
else
        DEBUG=0
fi
if [ $# -ge 2 ]; then
        DEBUG_F=$2
else
        DEBUG_F=0xffffffff
fi
if [ $# -ge 3 ]; then
        ttt=$3
else
        ttt=180
fi
#INSMOD_PARA=-m
MEXT=.ko
cd /usr/src/linux/drivers/isdn/hardware/mISDN
#modprobe capidrv
modprobe capi
insmod ${INSMOD_PARA} mISDN_core${MEXT} debug=${DEBUG} >/tmp/m_core.mod #
insmod ${INSMOD_PARA} faxl3${MEXT} debug=${DEBUG_F} ttt=$ttt 
> /tmp/m_faxl3.mod

mISDN_x25dte${MEXT} debug=${DEBUG} >/tmp/m_x25dte.mod insmod ${INSMOD_PARA}
mISDN_dtmf${MEXT} debug=${DEBUG} >/tmp/m_dtmf.mod #insmod ${INSMOD_PARA}
w6692pci${MEXT} debug=${DEBUG} pots=1 led=${LED}
protocol=2 > /tmp/w6692pci.mod
#insmod ${INSMOD_PARA} sedlfax${MEXT} debug=${DEBUG_F} protocol=2,2 
> /tmp/sf.mod
#insmod
${INSMOD_PARA}
/lib/modules/2.6.13/kernel/drivers/isdn/hardware/mISDN/avmfritz.ko
debug=${DEBUG_F} protocol=2 > /tmp/sf.mod modprobe avmfritz protocol=2

and you should get some usefull information from capiinfo

Kind Regards,

jon dean
