What distribution are you using? From the messages, it looks as though it could be Debian Sid or Wheezy, or possibly Ubuntu. You could try $ sudo apt-get install asterisk-core-sounds-en-gsm and see if that helps. What you might well have going on is a repository conflict, where apt wants to install incompatible packages from different repositories. I've personally never bothered with pre-compiled Asterisk packages. Just apt-get purge it (so that apt won't interfere with your installation in future), and build the latest version from the Source Code. -- AJS Answers come *after* questions. -- _____________________________________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?
