Thanks Michael,<br>
<br>
I've already been through all that unfortunately, and I have a SATA
drive, so no UDMA mode 2 as far as I know. I'm currently trying
everything again anyway, but i doubt it will work if nothing worked the
first time.<br>
<br>
Anyone would know of issues with XEN or SMP (or both) kernel? Do dual
core AMD64 processors have issues?<br>

<pre wrap="">François,
I too had a similar problem and found the information on this page helpful:

What ended up working for me was changing the UDMA to mode 2 for the hard
drive. Once I did that, this card has worked perfectly for me.

Subject: [asterisk-users] zaptel huge irq problem
Hello,
I had noticed strange crackling sound on my phone calls going through my
zaptel device (TDM400P), so i decided to check on possible timer issue,
and found lots of issues on forums concerning the sensibility of zaptel
with IRQs, and tried about everything: moving PCI slots, noapic and
acpi=off boot options, play with different kernel options:
iosched/preemption/timer/..., play with BIOS PCI options, change
priorities, PCI latencies, IRQ balance, smp_afinity, ................
but impossible to come up with anything correcting that problem.
Any idea about this? Is it possible to force the timer to ztdummy (RTC
timer) when you have a zap card plugged in? It's the only thing i could
try to make it work.
Thanks,
François.
Just in case:
- Linux 2.6.18 with debian patches and xen enabled, asterisk running on
dom0.
- Here is my zttest results under a bit of load:
