[Astlinux-users] DAHDI cards and AstLinux 1.5.x testing

[Lonnie A. <li...@lo...>]

Hi ... specially Ionel and Gonzalo (or others) for DAHDI testing.

You previously tested the AstLinux 1.4.x series with DAHDI 3.1.0, at that time we patched dahdi-linux to include PCI card support for: wctdm24xxp, wctdm and wcfxo

Gonzalo indicated it worked:

It is more than 2 years later and the AstLinux Team is working on the AstLinux 1.5.x series with DAHDI 3.2.0 and Linux Kernel 5.10.y, we have included the same patches to maintain PCI card support for: wctdm24xxp, wctdm and wcfxo

While the Linux Kernel 5.10.y drivers build properly, we have no way to test if things still work using those cards.


It now needs testing ... there is a new Pre-Release Version: astlinux-1.5-5689-b4e39c

Info:
https://www.astlinux-project.org/dev.html

With the console, use the CLI to upgrade via the appropriate Pre-Release Repository URL for your Asterisk version.

If you want to, revert back to your previous image with "upgrade-run-image revert" and "kernel-reboot" CLI commands.

In theory, it should just work.

Please post your test results here.

Thanks!

Lonnie
