Re: [App_rpt-users] What to do with new computers
Andy, Try svn export instead of svn checkout and see it asterisk compiles for you. 73, Steve N4IRS On 04/30/2014 04:59 PM, app_rpt-users-request@ohnosec.org wrote:

AS we get further and further away from the availability of older hardware I wonder what we are going to do soon as some of the hardware ages out and has to be replaced? I know what you just thought: No problem I?ll just wander off to the next PC shop and buy a cheap PC, and be done, or if you more technically inclined, you can even build your new system. BUT, you will very soon discover that new motherboards with UEFI BIOS are becoming more and more commonplace, to the point that older MB with ?standard old? BIOS are no longer to be had. And that spells problems! Neither ACID nor XIPPR installs on a UEFI bios?ed system and even the ?compatibility mode of many bioses? will give you more than its share of headaches.
There are a few Linux distros that are perfectly capable of being installed and working on a UEFI bios MB, but then the problem is how to get app_rpt working?
I have e.g. a MB here that I tried all the tricks I know of to get one of the stone aged distributions to work on and noting works. Whereas download a new Ubuntu 14.04 with UEFI support and everything works like a charm, at least as far as the OS is concerned.
Does anybody have a procedure at hand to get app_rpt working on a newer system or do I really have to start reading code, or are the power that be working on a solution? Long term if Allstar does not want to become obsolete that will be about the only solution, but what can we do short term?

I'd love to, alas what I am missing is the very entry point. Currently I don't even know where to download or check out the whole source code. I mean I know I can apt-get the source for asterisk on Ubuntu, but afaik that does not contain app-rpt. If any of you would be able to tell me where to start, maybe there is a description, I'll go and start compiling from there. Thanks Thanks -- Andreas Pleschutznig, Cell: (832) 633-7817 | Sent: iPad

I've been working on a project that uses the current version of Debian. I have a few scripts to configure a base install of Debian 7 for AllStar. Here is a snip of the get_src script. cd /usr/src svn export http://svn.ohnosec.org/svn/projects/allstar/astsrc-1.4.23-pre/trunk svntrunk wget http://downloads.asterisk.org/pub/telephony/dahdi-linux-complete/dahdi-linux... wget http://downloads.asterisk.org/pub/telephony/libpri/libpri-1.4-current.tar.gz 73 Steve N4IRS On 5/1/2014 7:45 AM, Andreas Pleschutznig wrote:
