+===== Asterisk, mISDN, chan_capi and Debian Sarge HOWTO =====
+//[[micha@dipper.info|Michael Dipper]] 03.11.2005//
+**//Please note that this page hasn't been updated for a while and most probably will show outdated information. It is mainly kept here for reference.//**
+This documents briefly describes how to get the Asterisk PBX running based on
+a CAPI 2.0 stack on top of mISDN drivers together with a stock Debian Sarge
+installation.
+The focus is to use debian provided packages as much as possible.
+Unfortunately latest mISDN drivers do not run with the stock debian kernel 2.6.8.
+Therefore we first install an updated kernel from
+[[http://www.backports.org]].
+Add backports.org sources to /etc/apt/sources.list:
+  deb http://www.backports.org/debian/ sarge-backports main
+Deactivate packages to be fetched from backports.org by default, we will selectively choose packets from there.
+Put in /etc/apt/preferences:
+  Package: *
+  Pin: release a=sarge-backports
+  Pin-Priority: 200
+Install the new kernel and reboot (currently it seems to be more stable to
+use the non-SMP kernel).
+  apt-get update
+  apt-get upgrade
+  apt-get -t sarge-backports install linux-image-2.6.15-1-686
+  apt-get install linux-source-2.6.15
+Prepare the kernel sources for building mISDN:
+  cd /usr/src
+  tar xvpjf linux-source-2.6.15.tar.bz2
+  ln -s linux-source-2.6.15 linux-2.6
+  ln -s linux-2.6 linux
+  ln -s /usr/src/linux-2.6 /lib/modules/2.6.15-1-686/build
+  cd /usr/src/linux
+  cp /boot/config-2.6.15-1-686 ./.config
+  make oldconfig
+  echo -1-686 > .extraversion
+Prepare to build mISDN modules and get the latest sources from CVS:
+  cd /usr/local/src
+  export CVSROOT=:pserver:guest:readonly@cvs.isdn4linux.de:/i4ldev
+  cvs login
+  cvs co -r mqueue mISDN
+Now patch the kernel sources:
+  cd mISDN
+  ./std2kern
+Activate the mISDN modules in the kernel config by making the following settings:
+  cd /usr/src/linux
+  make prepare
+  Support modular ISDN driver (MISDN_DRV) [N/m/?] (NEW) m
+    Enable memory leak debug for mISDN (MISDN_MEMDEBUG) [N/y/?] (NEW) n
+    Support for AVM Fritz!Cards (MISDN_AVM_FRITZ) [N/y/?] (NEW) y
+    Support for HFC PCI cards (MISDN_HFCPCI) [N/y/?] (NEW) y
+    Support for HFC multiport cards (HFC-4S/8S/E1) (MISDN_HFCMULTI) [N/y/?] (NEW) y
+    HFC multiport driver with memory mapped IO (HFCMULTI_PCIMEM) [N/y/?] (NEW) y
+    Support for HFC-S USB based TAs (MISDN_HFCUSB) [N/y/?] (NEW) y
+    Support for Sedlbauer Speedfax+ (MISDN_SPEEDFAX) [N/y/?] (NEW) y
+    Support for Winbond 6692 based cards (MISDN_W6692) [N/y/?] (NEW) y
+    Digital Audio Processing of transparent data (MISDN_DSP) [N/y/?] (NEW) y
+Build the mISDN modules and install them:
+  make scripts
+  make SUBDIRS=drivers/isdn/hardware/mISDN modules
+  make SUBDIRS=drivers/isdn/hardware/mISDN modules_install
+Delete /etc/init.d/misdn. We will load misdn drivers from
+/etc/default/capiutils
+Therefore add to /etc/default/capiutils:
+  MISDN_MODULES="mISDN_core mISDN_l1 mISDN_l2 l3udss1 mISDN_capi"
+  MISDN_DRIVER="hfcpci protocol=0x2"
+Reboot and check for proper detection and initialization of your card:
+  mISDNd: kernel daemon started
+  mISDNd: test event done
+  mISDN: DSS1 Rev. 1.29.2.12
+  mISDN_dsp: Audio DSP  Rev. 1.10.2.10 (debug=0xf)
+  mISDN_dsp: DSP clocks every 64 samples. This equals 8 jiffies.
+  mISDN Capi 2.0 driver file version 1.14.2.6
+  mISDN: HFC-PCI driver Rev. 1.39.2.16
+  mISDN: HFC-PCI card manufacturer: CCD/Billion/Asuscom card name: 2BD0
+  mISDNStackd started for id(00000100)
+  mISDNStackd started for id(10010100)
+  mISDNStackd started for id(10020100)
+  mISDN: HFC-PCI driver Rev. 1.39.2.16
+If you want to run Asterisk as  a user "asterisk" (recommended) be sure to
+fix the permissions on all directories and devices.
+  chown --recursive asterisk:asterisk /var/lib/asterisk
+  chown --recursive asterisk:asterisk /var/log/asterisk
+  chown --recursive asterisk:asterisk /var/run/asterisk
+  chown --recursive asterisk:asterisk /var/spool/asterisk
+  chown --recursive asterisk:asterisk /dev/mISDN
+  chmod --recursive u=rwX,g=rX,o= /var/lib/asterisk
+  chmod --recursive u=rwX,g=rX,o= /var/log/asterisk
+  chmod --recursive u=rwX,g=rX,o= /var/run/asterisk
+  chmod --recursive u=rwX,g=rX,o= /var/spool/asterisk
+  chmod --recursive u=rwX,g=rX,o= /dev/mISDN
+  chown --recursive root:asterisk /etc/asterisk
+  chmod --recursive u=rwX,g=rX,o= /etc/asterisk
+Your ISDN cards are defined in /etc/misdn-init.conf. The following example shows a
+configuration for two HFC-based cards.
+The first card is running in TE-mode (for connecting to the ISDN provider),
+the second one in NT-mode (for connecting phones).
+  #
+  # Configuration file for your misdn hardware
+  #
+  # Usage: /etc/init.d/misdn-init start|stop|restart|config|scan|help
+  #
+  #
+  # Card Settings
+  #
+  # Syntax: card=<number>,<type>[,<option>...]
+  #
+  #    <number>   count your cards beginning with 1
+  #    <type>     either 0x1,0x4 or 0x8 for your hfcmulti hardware,
+  #               or the name of your card driver module.
+  #    <option>   ulaw       - uLaw (instead of aLaw)
+  #               dtmf       - enable DTMF detection on all B-channels
+  #               pcm_slave  - set PCM bus into slave mode
+  #
+  card=1,hfcpci,pcm_slave
+  card=2,hfcpci
+Avoid HiSax modules from being loaded. To achieve this, add the following
+lines to /etc/hotplug/blacklist.d/capiutils:
+  hisax
+  hisax_fcpcipnp
+Get the latest chan_capi from http://sourceforge.net/projects/chan-capi. In future
+versions bristuffed asterisk packages will include chan_capi but currently this
+is not working properly.
+  apt-get install capiutils libcapi20-dev
+  cd /usr/local/src
+  tar xvpzf chan_capi-cm-0.6.3.tar.gz
+  cd chan-capi
+  make
+  make install
+Do not forget to edit /etc/asterisk/capi.conf <br>
+Check for correctly loaded capi within asterisk:
+  asterisk -r
+  capi info
+Now you should be done :) In case you have any additions of corrections to this howto,
+feel free to contact me!
