Hi all
I'm using Slackware, and I'm trying to install a Digium Wildcard x100p (PCI fxo port). I've found voicepet2.2, and it has the driver, in format .tar.gz. (zaptel-0.9.1.tar.gz). Slackware (KPackage and installpkg) need a .tgz file. So, I uncompressed the files and compressed to take the .tgz format. After that, the KPackage shows me the zaptel driver, but none files are reachable, and I can't access to zaptel driver from modprobe command, to add it to the kernel(2.4.29).

The file into .zip file, has a readme.txt file, it specifies that I need to run ./install -asterisk, but that command fail. I have installed asterisk, and I think need the driver, after configure the device.

Help me!!!

You shouldnt need voicepet . Zaptel is the driver in its self.

Great page tp go to is voip-info dot org and search for zaptel install. Shows you how to compile the zaptel for any OS. Just follow carefully and make sure you have kernel-source instlled for your kernel version

There is a great guide on installing asterisk and Slackware is an excellent system to install it on.

Important: It is recomended to first compile in this installation order: libpri, zaptel, asterisk

Run the following and it will install Asterisk for you
