New node software build question....
by Matt Beasant 23 May '12

23 May '12

I Have just built a new test node out of a HP thin client. 1GHz processor and 512Mb RAM. It seems to work OK but seems to take an age to start up the Asterisk application. Not boot up as such but once the Asterisk application starts ( i.e. I can log into the CLI with the asterisk -r command ) it seems to be some time until the LED starts to flash fast on the USB fob. The node seems to be loading beagle board channel drivers and Voter channel drivers, none of which I am using - how could I stop it loading these channel drivers to speed up my startup? Also, I have this node set to connect to a hub via the permalink cmd I put in the startup macro - this doesnt seem to be running for some reason? Maybe its related to the slow startup? Any help greatly appreciated, Many thanks, Matt G4RKY

BTW, from that box I can issue a telnet server1.echolink.org 5200 and get a connection, so that part isn't port forwarding related….At this point it seems it has to do with the build…. hmm… betting it's a library enhancement that hasn't been addressed…. Still debugging… The connect is failing most of the time… Wonder if putting those IP to names in the hosts file would help it… gonna try that now.

EchoLink

So, learning to run before I can walk :). With my newfound enthusiasm and a debian install. I wanted to test out functionality figured an easy way was to see about getting EchoLink working as well. So I added the echolink.conf file, made the changes for my specific EchoLink node and restarted. However I get all these errors about not being able to connect to their servers, header information not being correct, etc. I did some scanning and found that others have experiences the same thing. Anyone have this working on a recent install? Second, is there some type of *echo* conference bridge or *reflector* (Sorry for the use of the term, but it's appropriate). I need some way to test audio without being live on the air, etc? Alan

OMG - I think it works!
by Alan Adamson 22 May '12

So I hope you all will appreciate a little yelling and screaming!!! Here is what I did today.. I took a brand new DN2800MT Atom MB. Added 2G of ram, and 60G SSD drive and put that in an M350 case. I then took the Debian *64bit* net install, the latest - 6.0.5 and I used a tool to put it on a USB stick. From there, I booted from the usb stick and I installed Debian. I had been to this point prior so I knew how to get here. Next I knew I needed to get new drivers for the ALSA support. So I went to Realtek and downloaded their linux kernel modules.. Built and installed them - this meant I also had to put a development environment on the debian install through apt-get. Ok, so far so good. I had seen this as my motivation to get this working on Debian. http://kriskirkland.com/?p=143 I took this install script and modified it a little. Also because I can't get to the dl.allstarlink.org site directly (DNS issues), I got the files I needed through my cell connection and used them locally. During the install, you build the entire source for everything. This was my first challenge, there were errors in the source that I had to fix. As it turns out, it was just include files that needed to be added due to the recent kernel that I'm running. I also had to fix the udev rules for zaptel, they were basically wrong for the version of udev that is running, nothing dramatic, just some "="'s that needed to be "==" due to a change in the udev syntax. Next I added the ixaRPT setup and rebooted. Wow, a clean reboot. Nothing wrong and everything seems to be working. I was using the allstarlink node list to determine if I was up or not and I've since found out that I've got one little issue to work through. On a reboot, the system is functional, but I don't show as registered in the list. If I manually stop and start asterisk, I show up correctly. So. Bottom line, I seem to be functional and on the allstar link network with node 28578 - now before you all start connecting to me. There are no radios attached just yet. :). I'm waiting on my URI's and I've got an RTCM setting here that I need to look at in the coming days. But thanks to everyone that helped with suggestions and ideas. And thanks to Bryan Boyle for connecting to me and letting me know that audio was working both way, at least from my windows machine via the iaxRpt client. I also have the X-Lite client configured to connect to the sip.allstarlink site, but I don't know how to make PTT work with it :). I'll figure that out next. Bottom line, a pristine Debian install, with a Debianish ACID like install, on a very late model Atom MB.. Most would say 3 strikes, but man does it feel good when it works! Ok, one quick question. The *only * notice I get on bootup is something about a zap(tel) timer and using ztdummy instead.. Is that normal? Alan

Any RTCM Voter Installations Out There?
by Frederick Bray 22 May '12

22 May '12

I very recently purchased my RTCM module and will be ordering a second one soon. It will be a while before I have time to get it all running, but I thought I'd see whether there are any "average" users out there who might relate their experiences for the purpose of helping to educate me. (Jim Dixon has very kindly offered assistance, but because of work commitments it will be a while before I can meet with him.) I gather that chan_voter isn't included in the current ACID CENTOS distribution and will need to be compiled on my system. I can do this as I have a little bit of UNIX/Linux experience, but I don't want re-invent the wheel unnecessarily. Is there any documentation that I should be reading in addition to that on the voter project site? Thanks. 73, Fred Bray W6WAW
