[Asterisk-Users] Unicall acting really funny

Hello guys!

    I hope you bare with yet another newbie on the list! :-)
   
    I am trying to setup an asterisk installation in between a Siemens 
HiPath 3800 and my local carrier (Telefonica/Brazil). Both running R2. 
ISDN is not an option on the carrier. :-(

    I could apparently setup both E1s just fine according to zttool 
(both OK with no alarms) but, and this is where it starts to get funky, 
some calls from some phones get trough and some don't. Besides that, 
when I put the loglevel parameter in unicall.conf, asterisk gives me a 
seg fault when loading the module.
    The last problem is that when I try the "reload" command on the 
asterisk CLI, the E1s get blocked again because chan_unicall.so fails to 
reload.
   
    First of all, lets start with my environment:  

    Linux version: 2.4.27-2-386 #1 Wed Aug 17 09:33:35 UTC 2005 i686

    Zaptel version: 1.2.6
    Unicall: unicall-0.0.3pre9

Ok, now let's go with the logs! :-)

When asterisk starts everything goes OK without the loglevel entry in 
unicall.conf, but with it we get:

Now, the last of the problems (maybe I should have broken this down into 
more email, shouldn't I?), the reloading chan_unicall.so!

Ok, I think thats about it! Hope someone is patient enough to read all 
this! I am sorry for the first really long email.

Once again, thank you,
