Using SVN copy of Asterisk on RaspberryPi (and "usb.h")
Hello all, I am using Raspbian on the RaspberryPi, which is a "wheezy" image, upgraded to the latest kernels, using an aptitude copy of dahdi. I SVN checked out 1.4.23-pre of Asterisk as per the link on the Drupal site, and have been mulling over the various issues as they popped up during compilation. Where I've hit a brick wall is the "usb.h" file needed by chan_simpleusb.c. I've had a poke around the guts of my Raspbian install and tried a few files from the headers src package, but nothing seems to work. I've also installed libusb2-dev from aptitude, again, to no avail in terms of placing a "usb.h" file into the /usr/local/include/ folder. So, my question is this: while I can find plenty of references to "usb.h" in the source files on the various repos on the net, I'm unable to find a copy of the actual "usb.h" file - if someone could shed some light on where I could potentially wget this file from straight into my include folder, that would be great. As for my application, I'm using a RaspberryPi for the fact its very low powered, and since I'll be using a 10Ahr Lithium solar/ performance car battery (started off as solar cells, were adapted to performance cars like the Subaru WRX) and a solar panel/ controller, I can gain autonomy over a weekend operating period. In short, I don't want to drag a generator to the remote base to top off the batteries if I can help it. The URI will be hooked to the Pi on one end, and a Simoco SRM9005 on the other end, through a set of custom cables I'm (slowly) soldering up. I did some more work on them today in terms of the DB25 to URIx cable (which will go to a 5 pin DIN socket, then 5 pin DIN plug to DB15 on the Simoco). On the client end I'll be using IAXRpt on my Macbook Air, which has OSX 10.7 and the latest, sound enabled, WiNE package, along with Winebottler wrapper program to make it nice and GUI like for me - not that I'm afraid of a command line, I just like some things to be simple, and sometimes our PEKAC troubleshooting has to be done with non-experienced personnel, who would faint at the sight of a CLI. I've also got a Linksys SPA942 I want to try in terms of VOX activation, but thats a secondary concern now I've got IAXRpt working successfully on my Mac. Of course, success (under test conditions) will be I press "Ctrl" on the Mac, and I hear my voice come out the SRM9025 head, and vice versa, PTT the SRM9025 head and hear it come out the laptop. This will be interesting, as the MBA doesn't have a microphone port, only a built-in mic, and the Bluetooth stereo input device I bought at Aldi didn't work... I also want a DJs "stick" headphone, as my role in these weekend expeditions is PEKAC and general support, as well as some operation - apparently I have a good, strong radio voice. Ok, enough rambling, as you can see, I'm using the various properties of the systems to gain advantage over say a vanilla Limey Linux install on an Atom. Plus I like ARM. I like a challenge, and if I were to get this working, I'm sure my friend Andrew will be able to use my Raspbian image on his Pis to make further remote bases for next years expedition at Marramarra National Park. He has more Pis and Simocos than me... Thanks in advance for any help you guys can give - I'll be interested to hear your responses.
If you *REALLY* find it necessary to "roll your own", it is a VERY good idea to see how its done "normally". If I were you, I'd look and see how ACID is set up on Centos (take a look at the phase1.sh and phase2.sh scripts to see what packages get installed in Centos). To make it even easier for you, perhaps, here is the 'rootstock' command that makes the base distro for Pickle Linux (ARM, Ubuntu), which obviously has all the package names in the 'Ubuntu/Debian' world: rootstock --fqdn pickle --imagesize 1G --seed linux-image-omap,build-essential,gdb,alsa,alsa-oss,libasound2-dev,curl,libcurl4-dev,libssl-dev,libz-dev,libusb-dev,libnewt-dev,lsof,nano,ssh,screen,usbutils,wget,gpm,uboot-mkimage,libncurses5,libncurses5-dev,ppp,iptables,udhcpd The ones which are obviously development-related and the ones that are related to those are the ones you are interested in. I hope that helps you. Jim WB6NIL P.S. Dont even bother compiling chan_usbradio. The CPU wont have enough horsepower for the DSP functions. The only way you are going to even be able to MAYBE use a URI on that is with chan_simpleusb.

Hi all, I installed "libusb-dev" and that solved the immediate problem. Chan_simpleusb worked fine after that. However, a bit of a poke around "make menuselect" and I realised I'd been reading it totally wrong...! I can't actually select app_rpt without tonezone. And it appears I need Zaptel for tonezone. I'd installed tonezone-dev and tonezone2.0 via apt, but this hasn't worked. So I've posted a specific question to the Asterisk forums, once again explaining my position as to why I'm not using the latest software and all that (thank god no one has got up me about it yet... I am prepared for it though...!), and just some questions as to "Can I hack the source files to look for the apt version of tonezone, or do I *really* need to get the kernel source for Zaptel?" I'll keep you all updated, of course, I'm sure someone else out there is crazy enough to roll their own on a RPi... Thanks all!

Dont install any of the pre-canned packages for tonezone/zaptel as they don't work properly. Yes, you *HAVE* to install Zaptel/tonezone. Yes, you *HAVE* to install our WORKING version of it. Yes, you *HAVE* to have the kernel sources. Is, by any chance the Raspberry-Pi just as COMPLETELY IMPOSSIBLE to get valid kernel source for as the BeagleBoard-xM stuff is?

Jim, You got it in one - "Its too fast moving to..." what? Provide a package for a kernel you support? I know the RPi is only new hardware, but yeah, you're right. Ok, I'm using the Zaptel I SVN checked out with the 1.4.23-pre, so thats a win there. However, I might have to bug the RPi people (or Raspbian, as the case may be) to provide the kernel sources. It would be nice to just have an apt package. So, back to the RPi forums =) Many thanks Jim! On Sat, Oct 13, 2012 at 2:05 PM, Jim Duuuude <telesistant@hotmail.com> wrote:

I couldn't be bothered finding a 2Amp USB power supply for the Pi, and I may need the 13.8VDC up my sleeve. Many thanks for your help so far, and lets hope the RPi people get back to me in short order, and with a solution that doesn't eat my 1GB GPRS/ EDGE allowance while I'm away.

Many thanks for your help so far, and lets hope the RPi people get back to me in short order, and with a solution that doesn't eat my 1GB GPRS/ EDGE allowance while I'm away. Then again, there *is* wifi at the motel, but I don't control that network... obsessive need for control, I know... ^.~

Jim,
You got it in one - "Its too fast moving to..." what? Provide a package for a kernel you support? I know the RPi is only new hardware, but yeah, you're right.
Ok, I'm using the Zaptel I SVN checked out with the 1.4.23-pre, so thats a win there. However, I might have to bug the RPi people (or Raspbian, as the case may be) to provide the kernel sources. It would be nice to just have an apt package.
So, back to the RPi forums =)
Many thanks Jim!

Yes, you *HAVE* to install Zaptel/tonezone. Yes, you *HAVE* to install our WORKING version of it. Yes, you *HAVE* to have the kernel sources.
Is, by any chance the Raspberry-Pi just as COMPLETELY IMPOSSIBLE to get valid kernel source for as the BeagleBoard-xM stuff is? If so, I wish you the best of luck.

Hi all,
I installed "libusb-dev" and that solved the immediate problem. Chan_simpleusb worked fine after that.
However, a bit of a poke around "make menuselect" and I realised I'd been reading it totally wrong...! I can't actually select app_rpt without tonezone. And it appears I need Zaptel for tonezone. I'd installed tonezone-dev and tonezone2.0 via apt, but this hasn't worked.
So I've posted a specific question to the Asterisk forums, once again explaining my position as to why I'm not using the latest software and all that (thank god no one has got up me about it yet... I am prepared for it though...!), and just some questions as to "Can I hack the source files to look for the apt version of tonezone, or do I *really* need to get the kernel source for Zaptel?"
I'll keep you all updated, of course, I'm sure someone else out there is crazy enough to roll their own on a RPi...
Thanks all!

You're absolutely right, or I would've thought so. I also understand, this is a fast moving target, so things may not be in line with each other - but literally crippling the platform? The first thing someone is going to want to do is compile a kernel, or so I would've thought. It *is* a hackers platform, after all. I've got access to a git repo, but I just want to clone the "kernel" directory, since I'm on a download limited 3G connection, and I've probably burned at least a quarter of it downloading various things already, I'm conscious of my download limit. And the whole git looked like over 200Meg. Plus I only have an 8GB microSD card in the Pi, ok, I might have 3GB up my sleeve, but even thats not enough for my paranoid self. Additionally, Jim, I looked at the RTCMs and showed my friend Andrew. Now I've resolved to get two early next year, along with some GPS clocks and the like, and set up a voting system with the base stations 800m apart connected by long shot wifi. The wifi works, tested it before I pulled it down. I know a vote over 800m is pitiful, but I have unfettered access to both properties (ones mine, the others my Mums). Of course, it'll be a "work in progress" there for a while, and I won't be able to get my slate PC until April... but my Macbook Air is still going strong - I'm sure I told you all I got IAXRpt working under WiNE with sound... thats pretty nifty, I was never much more glad to hear an error tone in my life! Thanks again guys - lets see if the RPi people come to the party... I've posed my question on the forums of course. If anyone here has some tips on cloning a single directory out of a git repo though, I'm all ears... ^.~ On Sun, Oct 14, 2012 at 5:43 AM, Buddy Brannan <buddy@brannan.name> wrote:

Hi Shane! Having got a few Raspberry Pi's going with my FREE STAR* project (www.freestar.us), I thought I'd give app_rpt a try.... I am also using the Raspbian "Wheezy" distro. How did you get the 'kernel-dev' package installed? I have tried a few different methods... apt-get install make gcc linux-headers-`uname -r` apt-get install raspberrypi-kernel-devel apt-get install linux-kernel-devel (-dev as well) And no joy!!! Do tell.... Cheers! Ramesh. On 12/10/2012 2:16 AM, Shane Morris wrote:
Hello all,
I am using Raspbian on the RaspberryPi, which is a "wheezy" image, upgraded to the latest kernels, using an aptitude copy of dahdi.
I SVN checked out 1.4.23-pre of Asterisk as per the link on the Drupal site, and have been mulling over the various issues as they popped up during compilation.
Where I've hit a brick wall is the "usb.h" file needed by chan_simpleusb.c. I've had a poke around the guts of my Raspbian install and tried a few files from the headers src package, but nothing seems to work.
I've also installed libusb2-dev from aptitude, again, to no avail in terms of placing a "usb.h" file into the /usr/local/include/ folder.
So, my question is this: while I can find plenty of references to "usb.h" in the source files on the various repos on the net, I'm unable to find a copy of the actual "usb.h" file - if someone could shed some light on where I could potentially wget this file from straight into my include folder, that would be great.
As for my application, I'm using a RaspberryPi for the fact its very low powered, and since I'll be using a 10Ahr Lithium solar/ performance car battery (started off as solar cells, were adapted to performance cars like the Subaru WRX) and a solar panel/ controller, I can gain autonomy over a weekend operating period. In short, I don't want to drag a generator to the remote base to top off the batteries if I can help it.
The URI will be hooked to the Pi on one end, and a Simoco SRM9005 on the other end, through a set of custom cables I'm (slowly) soldering up. I did some more work on them today in terms of the DB25 to URIx cable (which will go to a 5 pin DIN socket, then 5 pin DIN plug to DB15 on the Simoco).
On the client end I'll be using IAXRpt on my Macbook Air, which has OSX 10.7 and the latest, sound enabled, WiNE package, along with Winebottler wrapper program to make it nice and GUI like for me - not that I'm afraid of a command line, I just like some things to be simple, and sometimes our PEKAC troubleshooting has to be done with non-experienced personnel, who would faint at the sight of a CLI.
I've also got a Linksys SPA942 I want to try in terms of VOX activation, but thats a secondary concern now I've got IAXRpt working successfully on my Mac.
Of course, success (under test conditions) will be I press "Ctrl" on the Mac, and I hear my voice come out the SRM9025 head, and vice versa, PTT the SRM9025 head and hear it come out the laptop. This will be interesting, as the MBA doesn't have a microphone port, only a built-in mic, and the Bluetooth stereo input device I bought at Aldi didn't work... I also want a DJs "stick" headphone, as my role in these weekend expeditions is PEKAC and general support, as well as some operation - apparently I have a good, strong radio voice.
Ok, enough rambling, as you can see, I'm using the various properties of the systems to gain advantage over say a vanilla Limey Linux install on an Atom. Plus I like ARM. I like a challenge, and if I were to get this working, I'm sure my friend Andrew will be able to use my Raspbian image on his Pis to make further remote bases for next years expedition at Marramarra National Park. He has more Pis and Simocos than me...
Thanks in advance for any help you guys can give - I'll be interested to hear your responses. _______________________________________________ App_rpt-users mailing list App_rpt-users@ohnosec.org http://ohnosec.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/app_rpt-users
Hi mate! I've had Real Life (TM) intervene in the meantime since my last email, and I've not been able to invest any time in the project. Additionally, theres not been any responses to my post on the RPi forums regards the information I need to get the kernel sources needed to compile the Zaptel drivers, and potentially the Asterisk implementation. I've just checked. Its rather unfortunate, I'm sure I'm not the only one asking for kernel driver source. However, as a point of interest, if you want to port Plan9 to RPi, you can now do so, the video drivers are open source... There is a git repo that I can get the details for you again, if needed. The only reason I haven't downloaded this was the fact its over 200MB, and I have a data limit of 2,000MB per fortnight. I have a little extra data at the moment, I might hook it all back up again tomorrow, and try downloading the git. Set it to download before I go to sleep, wake up again about 5am, and see where I'm up to. I'm not sure how helpful this is for you, at this present time. If I can help out in any other way, let me know, I'll see what I can come up with. To get URIs working with the RPi would solve next years radio application, our redesign of the RTCM won't be ready by early October next year. Actually, I'm going to go hook the RPi back up to its monitor and cabling (I have a VESA mount plate for it), and get it working on the network again - as mentioned, I'll set it to download just before I take my tablets tonight, and let it run in off peak, hopefully there isn't too much HSPA traffic on my local cell. If the git is downloaded by tomorrow morning, I'll have a crack at those kernel sources, and see if I can get Zaptel working. If that works, then Asterisk should fall into line after it. All being well. Now if only the local electronics shop could get me the 5 pin DIN plugs and sockets I've ordered so I can hook up my SRM9000 to my URI... Hope this helps, even if we both know it isn't much at this point. Let me know if theres anything else I can do. Shane. On Sat, Oct 27, 2012 at 1:16 PM, Ramesh Dhami (VA3UV) <Ramesh@va3uv.com> wrote:
Hi Shane!
Having got a few Raspberry Pi's going with my FREE STAR* project (www.freestar.us), I thought I'd give app_rpt a try.... I am also using the Raspbian "Wheezy" distro.
How did you get the 'kernel-dev' package installed?
I have tried a few different methods...
apt-get install make gcc linux-headers-`uname -r`
apt-get install raspberrypi-kernel-devel
apt-get install linux-kernel-devel (-dev as well)
And no joy!!!
Do tell....
Cheers!
Ramesh.

Hello all,
I am using Raspbian on the RaspberryPi, which is a "wheezy" image, upgraded to the latest kernels, using an aptitude copy of dahdi.
I SVN checked out 1.4.23-pre of Asterisk as per the link on the Drupal site, and have been mulling over the various issues as they popped up during compilation.
Where I've hit a brick wall is the "usb.h" file needed by chan_simpleusb.c. I've had a poke around the guts of my Raspbian install and tried a few files from the headers src package, but nothing seems to work.
I've also installed libusb2-dev from aptitude, again, to no avail in terms of placing a "usb.h" file into the /usr/local/include/ folder.
So, my question is this: while I can find plenty of references to "usb.h" in the source files on the various repos on the net, I'm unable to find a copy of the actual "usb.h" file - if someone could shed some light on where I could potentially wget this file from straight into my include folder, that would be great.
As for my application, I'm using a RaspberryPi for the fact its very low powered, and since I'll be using a 10Ahr Lithium solar/ performance car battery (started off as solar cells, were adapted to performance cars like the Subaru WRX) and a solar panel/ controller, I can gain autonomy over a weekend operating period. In short, I don't want to drag a generator to the remote base to top off the batteries if I can help it.
The URI will be hooked to the Pi on one end, and a Simoco SRM9005 on the other end, through a set of custom cables I'm (slowly) soldering up. I did some more work on them today in terms of the DB25 to URIx cable (which will go to a 5 pin DIN socket, then 5 pin DIN plug to DB15 on the Simoco).
On the client end I'll be using IAXRpt on my Macbook Air, which has OSX 10.7 and the latest, sound enabled, WiNE package, along with Winebottler wrapper program to make it nice and GUI like for me - not that I'm afraid of a command line, I just like some things to be simple, and sometimes our PEKAC troubleshooting has to be done with non-experienced personnel, who would faint at the sight of a CLI.
I've also got a Linksys SPA942 I want to try in terms of VOX activation, but thats a secondary concern now I've got IAXRpt working successfully on my Mac.
Of course, success (under test conditions) will be I press "Ctrl" on the Mac, and I hear my voice come out the SRM9025 head, and vice versa, PTT the SRM9025 head and hear it come out the laptop. This will be interesting, as the MBA doesn't have a microphone port, only a built-in mic, and the Bluetooth stereo input device I bought at Aldi didn't work... I also want a DJs "stick" headphone, as my role in these weekend expeditions is PEKAC and general support, as well as some operation - apparently I have a good, strong radio voice.
Ok, enough rambling, as you can see, I'm using the various properties of the systems to gain advantage over say a vanilla Limey Linux install on an Atom. Plus I like ARM. I like a challenge, and if I were to get this working, I'm sure my friend Andrew will be able to use my Raspbian image on his Pis to make further remote bases for next years expedition at Marramarra National Park. He has more Pis and Simocos than me...
Thanks in advance for any help you guys can give - I'll be interested to hear your responses. _______________________________________________ App_rpt-users mailing list App_rpt-users@ohnosec.org http://ohnosec.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/app_rpt-users

Hi all, Just as an update, I've cloned the git repo for RPi, and it has what should be the 3.2.27+ kernel source in it. Unfortunately for me, when I go to "make" Zaptel, it still tells me I don't have the required kernel sources. Now, I have put the symbolic links in the /usr/src directory, still no dice. I have just checked the github.com site, and lo and behold, 3.2.27+ - hmmm, rather interesting. Is there any other processes or files that I may still require to try to get the thing to realise I've just downloaded the kernel source? Many thanks for your help...! Shane.
