[App_rpt-users] Zaptel on Debian Wheezy???

Hi Jim,

I realize that a lot has changed with Linux 3.X.  But, the mapping from
the old ioctl() kernel calls to the new compat_ioctl() or unlocked_ioctl()  
calls is pretty straight forward for many ioclt operations......I haven't
carefully looked zaptel over as of yet. Since I only really need ztdummy
and zttranscode, I was hoping a port would be simple--and, already tackled
by someone else!

I have concerns about trying to use the dahdi code in a production 
environment at this point, since it hasn't been as heavily tested (or am I 
wrong about this?).

Thanks for your help-

73, David KB4FXC
