Acid install help
by Barrett 15 Apr '14

15 Apr '14

Hello, I am trying to install the Acid distribution of Allstar. The computer is a ACER Aspire M1202-U1850A Desktop PC - AMD Athlon LE-1640 2.6GHz, 2GB DDR2, 320GB HDD, DVDRW. During installation everything seems fine until the computer restarts and then ask to remove media after that the computer will freeze at yum-updatesd after a while it will tell me that I have no internet connection. Now to be honest I am new to Linux. I did install Centos 6 as a test and it had internet also I install a copy of debian and it also had internet. I do have a IRLP node that I wish to convert over to allstar. Could you please point me in the right direction for installation? I ordered a usb sound fob and also an pci parallel port. The port being for the irlp board ver 3. Thanks for your time and help. KG7CHJ 40775

It is always easier to get things going with simpleusb assuming you have a hardwired cos or ctss line to the URI interface. In many cases usbradio just makes things a whole lot more complicated than it needs to be. If you are using the URI use the COS input (pin 8 as I remember) from the radio. All you need to do is set the COS in simpleusb.conf to invert or non-invert depending on the radio output. Make sure duplex in rpt.conf is set to 1. 73 Doug WA3DSP http://www.crompton.com/hamradio From: kk6ecm(a)gmail.com Subject: Re: [App_rpt-users] /dev/dsp Date: Tue, 15 Apr 2014 15:15:37 -0700 To: doug(a)crompton.com Us, all works from that side... The red PTT light does not activate when connected to the radio, even during an I'd transmit. If I send a tone to the radio from CLI, it will light, and come out over the air. It's behavior is confusing. The system responds to COS_det on receive, but no voice comes through, acting like no ctcss detected with =dsp... When the computer died, I just loaded up ACID, then copied over the .conf files, and located the URI using lsusb, entering the data in the usbradio_tune... File.

Well first thing is the URI's green light blinking at a steady rate when asterisk-app_rpt is started? You can also exercise the PTT off and on in the CLI.

IPs don`t update
by torben＠klimt-online.com 15 Apr '14

15 Apr '14

Hi all, i set up an new allstarlink node and now i have the problem that the IPs of the other allstarlink nodes not update. After restart the machine the IPs in the Database are correct and I can connect to my other nodes. But after 24h my nodes get new IPs from the Internetprovider and then it is no longer possible cause the new allstarlink node should always try to reach the old IP address. I think there is a problem by updating the allstarlink nodenumber - IP address database Where is the file located or what can I do for debugging or better fix the problem Tnx 73...

USB Frustrations
by Bob 14 Apr '14

14 Apr '14

How does one go about finding a USB 2.0 on their computer? (required for URI) I'm using a computer that indicates it has one USB 2.0 port (lsusb -v yields 001:001), and it does not show up on any of the physical USB ports... any of the 8 (6 in back and 2 up front); Older computer that I'm trying to use till my newer motherboard arrives. My fear is the USB 2.0 found is some overarching port without a physical location. Is there a way of "assigning" a hub and port (2.0 required) to one of the physical ports on the computer? BTW, I'm familiar with the old phrase, "Friends don't let friends use USB." In other words... humor this ol' guy, and newbie to boot :-) Thanks, Bob kk6ecm

Cent OS Updating?
by Greg 14 Apr '14

14 Apr '14

Is it possible to update Allstar base OS without breaking something? Will "yum update" work or is there some other option that is safer? When I checked the list of updates, asterisk wasn't one of them but haven't executed it yet. Thanks Greg
