Fxotune issue...

I recently noticed that people using fxotune to correct echo/gain issues may have trouble getting it to work with trixbox 2.6.1 (and I'm assuming 2.6.2). Fxotune has to be run after zaptel but before asterisk. Now, this "appears" to be done already with trixbox in the /etc/init.d/zaptel file. The problem is, the variable is written as below:

FXOTUNE=/sbin/fxotune

should be:

FXOTUNE=/usr/sbin/fxotune

I noticed this on my install of 2.6.1. Fxotune wasn't running at startup because the system could not find fxotune under the /sbin directory... because it is not located there. Just thought I would mention it, and maybe the trixbox team might want to change that in future versions.

Quick little tip:

If you scroll down further in the /etc/init.d/zaptel file you will find a line reading:

$FXOTUNE -s || :

may want to change it to:

action "Running fxotune: " FXOTUNE -s || :

Now at startup, you will see the status of the fxotune module. Sort of a way to verify whether or not it is working :)
