Hi to all. I'm running a FreeBSD 6.10-RELEASE-p10 at the moment and have a few small questions with the handling of the ISDN4BSD package from http://www.turbocat.net/~hselasky/isdn4bsd/ by Hans Petter Selasky (short HPS:-)). First of all, it looks like this is the only available option to run passive ISDN cards with Asterisk on FreeBSD.I've got that combination up and running with some issues (call is dropped by i4b/asterisk/??? after about 30 secs). As there have been changes to the source by HPS since 1.6.1 I'm currently installing subversion to update i4b. And now the questions start. - How is i4b by HPS supposed to be updated? Is it correct to do a "make deinstall" of the 1.6.1 and then a "make install" of the new one? - About the same "issue" with updating the base system to get to the next patch release or release of FreeBSD. Is it required to make a deinstall of i4b by HPS followed by a /usr/src>make update / buildworld-Process and then re-installing it all? - And to make this hole thing complete, just another humble opinion about i4b in general. I've been using i4b since a 4.x version of FreeBSD for some small applications. That time it was good and "new". Nowadays the built-in version of i4b has some deficits, namely no CAPI for passive cards. So what do YOU (meaning users of i4b) think about the idea, that the "new" i4b by HPS should be integrated into the base FreeBSD. My opinion is, that this would enhance the functionality of FreeBSD in that area and all the FreeBSD users would benefit. Oliver
