Trying to get Zaptel to compile on Debian SMP kernel

Asterisk Asterisk Support
1

Hi,
I’m trying to install Asterisk from source, but I cannot get the Zaptel driver module to compile on my dual Xeon server.

I appears it is wanting the source code for the SMP kernel which is not in the Debian repository.

Can anyone help me?

Cheers,

Rob.

Hi,
Done some digging, and I have arrived at the conclusion that I have to re-compile my kernel, having set it up for SMP with Menuconfig. Once I do that then I will have my SMP kernel source for this. Does this sound like a logical way forward?

Cheers,

Rob.

What does uname -r show ?

I have never had a problem with the smp kernel for debian and zaptel

Hi,
The command uname -r brings up 2.6.8-3-686-smp.

Any ideas why it does not compile?

Regards,

Robert

might be helpful to post more than ‘it doesn’t compile’.

Hi,
Output reproduced below.

Sorry about that.

you sure you have the kernel development stuff installed?

what does ‘rpm -qav | grep kernel’

show you?

Hi,
That does not work in Debian. I have got my kernel headers in /usr/src, and in /usr/src/linux (just to be sure) and it still does not like it.

LNGBLYNC0001:/usr/src# ls
asterisk-1.2.11 kernel-headers-2.6.8-2 libpri-1.2.3 zaptel-1.2.8.tar.gz
asterisk-1.2.11.tar.gz kernel-headers-2.6.8-2-686-smp libpri-1.2.3.tar.gz
asterisk-addons-1.2.4.tar.gz kernel-headers-2.6.8-3 linux
asterisk-sounds-1.2.1.tar.gz kernel-headers-2.6.8-3-686-smp zaptel-1.2.8
LNGBLYNC0001:/usr/src#

I am really confused. What version of gcc should I be using?

Rob.

Hi,
Got it to compile; I had not installed the kernel-kbuild-2.6-3 package.

Got everything working now, or rather compiled and running. Now start the game of configuring.

Thanks to those that responded.

Rob.
