Hello. I have been trying for days to get a Digum TE207P card working on fresh install of Trixbox. I'm getting no where fast and I need to get this working. Is there someone out there I can pay to SSH into the box and setup the zatel drivers etc? I have bought an hours support from trixbox.org but after more than 20 calls over the last 8 days I've given up on them. They have never answered the phone or returned the voicemails I have left, a waste of $150 I guess.
Rob
I can probably help. Email me and I'll get back to you.

Ok, I need to see the output of the following command:
cat /proc/interrupts
and please paste the answer using the code tags. See the dentist's post if you don't know what that is, but it makes it much easier to read.
Also, please paste your /etc/zaptel.conf too.

Thanks, here are the outputs.

The family wants to go out and get some food, so I'll take a look when I get back.
Is there a reason nobody ever uses the code tags like I ask?

My mind immediately goes to IRQ conflicts when I see IRQs like that. Have you tried turning off APIC in the kernel boot params?
A hard lock like you're describing is, in my experience, almost always a hardware issue. Not that it can't be solved.

Just tried that, rebooted and did the cat /proc/interrupts again.
Heres the result:

What kernel params did you pass? Because that's still using virtual IRQs. Try using both:
noapic acpi=no
I hope I'm not leading you down the wrong path, but I really think this sounds like IRQ conflicts. Do you need both the analog card and the digital, or is the digital card going to replace the analog? If it's replacing it, you may want to take it out.

get in the bios, try 1 or all, or any combo of below.
1. disable EVERYTHING you dont need in the bios - any un-used ide/sata/fdd ports, usb etc.
2. try switching any SMP or multicore junk off
3. try toggling the plug-n-play option in the bios (if your bios doesnt have this consider a better board)
4. set any option to "reset configuration data"
5. switch off acpi in bios
switch PCI slots if open.
try Kodaks boot params.

Sorry of the late reply,
I added the line in grub.conf and disabled all unused devices and this is the result.
The same thing still happens, made four or five short calls then the server locked up.
It did report on the console a do_IRQ: stack overflow: 212

I'm starting to think it must be a duff TE207P card.
I've tried taking out the TM400 card and still get the same result.
I have also put the TE207P card in another IBM machine, installed Trixbox and it did same, locking up after 3 or four calls.
Found out what was causing the problem. I unpluged the Echo cancellation board from the main card and its now running fine. I guess it must be a faulty board.
Thanks for everyones help.
I just purchased two TE207Ps.
They *BOTH* exhibit the behavior you are describing here.
Did you ever get a resolution? I really am *not* comfortable with the idea of paying for hardware echo canceling then having to remove it so that I don't have lock issues. :(
I tried two different systems altogether.

No nothing, spoke to Digium support they said to send it back to my supplier. I sent it back to voipdepot.co.uk 10 weeks ago and still heard nothing. To be fair the system works fine but I feel the same as you paying for it and it won't work. I will ring voipdepot.co.uk again to see what they say but I'm not holding my breath. My system is now working so Im worried about putting it back in anyway, it was such a random lockup.
Not so random for me. :) Was definite all the time.
I am wondering if it is specific to the zaptel drivers in Trixbox ?
I had Digium support SSH into the box and change the drivers several times, no joy :-(
