The iaxrpt software has gradually become in accessible with wine some how over the past little bit of time i have had to experiment with it..

Here is what i have done since wine has started having issues.. 

I went back to windows 7 as my primary os with secondary boot to xubuntu.. inside windows i run vitualbox seemless mode with xubuntu so that way i can still enjoy most of my linux fun..


This has solved the issues with wine which were..
Wine would lock my network traffic to iaxrpt and was unable to use firefox or chrome web browser while using iaxrpt..

Iaxrpt would continue to run in the back ground as a zombie process and would have to either kill it using htop or reboot the entire system to break the zombie process..

Other issues i had with xubuntu unrelated was Bluetooth headset issues.. This i was the main cause of me throwing away my two years of enjoyment with linux..

Here is what i did learn about running linux and windows in a vm.. Iaxrpt doesnt work correctly and notice jitter and other issues.. Also Windows seems to not like virtualized environments in general hope this helps.

Anyone having issues with IaxRpt running under Wine?

Had been running fine on Mint 17 and wine 1.6. but it quit several weeks ago. It does something very strange.

Receive works fine and the first time you press PTT everything is fine, but the next time the PTT lights up red but transmitter does not key and no audio shows on vu meter.

It does the same thing with different nodes.

Found out another guy running Mint has the same problem.

Tried Wine 1.7 but no change.

I have OpenSuse Leap42 running as a VM with Wine 1.7 and it seems to work fine.

Any ideas gurus?
