Tha's not exactly how you're supposed to build them. m-a build zaptel m-a is module-assistant, and is a dependency of zaptel-source. Or, as a user (preferably in an empty directory) m-a -u . build zaptel m-a has some insane defaults. I normally use: m-a -u . -f -i -t build zaptel This should give you a better chance of getting the kernel version passed correctly to the makefile. The original makefile does a pretty bad job at guessing your kernel source tree. > > zaptel.c:5739: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type > or > zaptel.c:6107: error: invalid use of undefined type `struct zt_chan' > and there are others too > > looking at the zaptel.c source file, it seems as though many of the errors > relate to the static struct zt_chan *chans[ZT_MAX_CHANNELS]; variable defined > on line 336. > > When download a fresh 1.0.7 from ftp.digium.com and compile that, I get the > same errors.

My own package always built (that is: I always massaged it to building). The 1.0.7 version is at http://tzafrir.org.il/rapid/ The current 1.0.9 version is at http://tzafrir.org.il/rapid108/unstable/ > > The machine is a P3 933 with 64Mb of RAM (i know - not much - will be getting > more soon!!). Shouldn't matter, as long as you have enough swap. -- Tzafrir Cohen icq#16849755 +972-50-7952406 [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.xorcom.com -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
