[asterisk-users] Asterisk on iMac G3 Debian5 (powerpc)

[Steve Gladden]

I've recently installed the latest Debian Linux for powerpc onto
and old iMac (version A) the original iMac with a 233Mhz G3 processor
and 160MB of sdram.

The debian install went smooth and so the the apt-get install of
Asterisk 1.4.21

It appears to have no functioning zaptel or ztdummy module.

Is because of hardware? or is it because whoever built the package
didn't include a full working zaptel with ztdummy?


In other words is zaptel & ztdummy supported on this old mac hardware?
Can I re-compile from scratch and get it all to work? or is there are
hardware limitation or lack leaving this with no hardware timer options?

It's on a 2.6 kernel and very up to date.

Having a full working asterisk pbx on and old iMac is something everyone
should experience at least once in their life!

:-)
