asterisk users - Feb 2005 - Debian way of compiling zaptel kernel modules

I ran "apt-get -b source zaptel-source" to download and compile the
zaptel
source.

It successfully compiles and builds the following packages:

libtonezone-dev_1.0.2-2_i386.deb
libtonezone1_1.0.2-2_i386.deb
zaptel-source_1.0.2-2_all.deb
zaptel_1.0.2-2_i386.deb

None of them contain the kernel modules.

Is there a way I can get it to compile the kernel modules?

Thanks,

Geoff

Be sure you're using Debian with kernel 2.4.20 or more (if you use the
stable release version of Debian, using dselect will just upgrade your
kernel until 2.4.18, and the zaptel libraries won't be properly compiled).
Using dselect o apt, get the kernel-sources packages and the kernel-heades
packages. And modify the Makefile for the zaptel libraries to point to the
proper directories for the kernel headers (don't use usr/include/linux).
Hope this helps

Marco

zaptel-source contains the modules packed nicely for building with the
debian kernel build system.

apt-get install kernel-package 

Do you build a custom kernel or use a standard Debian package?

The latter case is slightly more complicated, as you have to build the
modles package to mach the exact config of the target kernel. But quite
doable.

We build for a number of configs and for 2.4 and 2.6 on the same system
without even resorting to chroot tricks so far.

BTW: did I mention that we have binary packages for standard Debian
Sarge kernels in our apt source?

zaptel is the only package that never worked for me from apt-get. I need 
to download, compile and install the kernel (specially because the 
original debian install is pre 2.4.20), then download all the CVS (or 
whatever) files for asterisk and zaptel, compile-but-not-install the 
asterisk and then compile the zaptel.

Not terrible, but not quite easy for a beginner. Or did I miss something?

I have used a custom kernel in the past.  I was hoping that I could just
download the kernel-source, and compile the zaptel-source to produce the
modules.  The zaptel-source compile works, but only the programs get
compiled.

I am actually running your binaries right now.  I just wanted to take more
control of the process.

Thanks,

Geoff
