</div>In the dahdi-linux package you can edit drivers/dahdi/Kbuild and comment out<br>
every module except for dahdi.ko. So looking in that file you will see<br>
something like:<br>
<br>
obj-$(DAHDI_BUILD_ALL)$(CONFIG_DAHDI) += dahdi.o<br>
#obj-$(DAHDI_BUILD_ALL)$(CONFIG_DAHDI_DUMMY) += dahdi_dummy.o<br>
obj-$(DAHDI_BUILD_ALL)$(CONFIG_DAHDI_DYNAMIC) += dahdi_dynamic.o<br>
obj-$(DAHDI_BUILD_ALL)$(CONFIG_DAHDI_DYNAMIC_LOC) += dahdi_dynamic_loc.o<br>
<br>
Here dahdi_dummy is commented out. Just comment out all the other modules<br>
(lines that start with obj-) and leave only dahdi.o.<br>
<br>
dahdi.ko now automatically monitors the spans and if there isn't one providing<br>
timing, it will use the built in timing source which functions very similarly<br>
to dahdi dummy of the past.<br>

<br>
</div>Since dahdi-linux 2.3.0, all you need is dahdi.ko. There is no more<br>
"dahdi_dummy" module required unless you specifically install it.<br>

<br>
</div>You will still need the kernel sources to compile dahdi.ko against. Also when<br>
you install dahdi-tools, you will want to comment out all the lines in<br>
/etc/dahdi/modules so that the init script does not try to load any of the<br>
board drivers.<br><font class="Apple-style-span" color="#888888"><br></font></blockquote><div><br></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" face="'trebuchet ms', sans-serif" color="#000099">Wow!
