making distros like Asterisk at Home talk from install up throughdaily use
20 answers - 1094 bytes -
Hi there! I want to know how I could make Asterisk at Home run with a
speakup-enabled Kernel, especially through the installation and all? I want
to use the Asterisk system and Voip and heard this was the easiest way to do
it My old machine I want to make into a Linux box has some core of Fedora on
its secondary 6.whatever gig drive, and the 30 gig has 98 on that I just
want certain files of and that will then be reformatted, and it has my
double talk board I used with that distro. Assuming that the Fedora on there
is still bootable and I remember the Root password, how would I modify the
iso of the Asterisk at Home distro so I could have talking install and then
boot into a talking system? I heard this is the easiest way of running such
a system because you get the webbased admin tools that are set up for that
distro. The last time I tried just replacing the Kernel on an install disk
and reburning, I got module error disaster. How do I prevent that this time?

cause it has a web gui thats why

Why? Why particularly Asterisk At Home when Asterisk itselfs works
perfectly well with Speakup.
Isn't Asterisk At Home a gui front end to Asterisk? , did I miss
something here?

| Yeah, that's the idea so it's easy to set up. I also don't want to have to
scan my provider's network to find where the machine is (if one can't see
the screen or hear speech because the kernel doesn't provide it, how else
would I tell from my other machine what dhcp address they assign) This is
why a router probably would've been better than a switch, but this is what
no-ip.org and stuff are made for.

| Yeah, that's what I want to do with it, but I'd need to get it installed
into that system. I figure I'm probably going to have to buy a KVM switch
for it even though the keyboard part is all I really need to switch as I
doubt just keyboard switches are made. This is what the asterisk at home
system does, unless there is another way around having to use distros that
don't speak.

work with Speakup, go fix the web markup so it will run with lynx or
elinks or maybe edbrowse.
You're rather asking how to use a hammer to slice an orange, sir.

| Hi,
I think he wants to know how he can get the install of Asterisk At Home to
be speech friendly. However, since it appears he has limited speech
resources so can't use his regular box to host Asterisk, I'd think he'd hit
the same problems.
I personally recommend installing Asterisk on a regular Linux system and
configuring it by hand, or not bothering. Asterisk is highly complicated,
it's get your hands dirty type software that usually generates lots of
questions. the first thing anyone's going to ask if you ask anywhere for
Asterisk help is "What's in <insert config filename here>".

| Hi,
Not that I'm aware of, but that's not the point. This is a PBX, not a
telephone. It's almost necessarily complex. If you're looking to use a web
front-end in order to make it easier to use, then you may do well to
consider whether this is something you really want to get into.
I'm certain that using a front-end will come back to bite you in the end, so
I say "dive straight in".

| Well, the install instructions need you to do stuff as root after
installing, including finding the IP address that dhcp will assign and
things like that. I will probably have to set up some dynamic IP client to
get a predictable name to use if the ISP forces an address change, which
they don't do often but they can. After you would get it's IP, you would
then use the normal web browser to surf to the machine and finish setting up
from there.

| Actually it's not necessarily the web part I want to work with Speakup, but
the linux it comes with. I thought I heard one can just get a tar ball and
install it into anything. What I mean is how I'd put in a Kernel that speaks
versus one that doesn't so I can use the linux console of the system once
it's up to find the IP that gets assigned and to set up dynamic DNS and a
few other things I want on there.

| I'm thinking that might be the case. I bet I'd probably find some feature I
want that the GUI doesn't support, and only the guys who made that really
know how it altered the files. It just sounded good that people say "set it
up in an hour or less" I don't care really how long it takes, not in a real
rush, just wondered how hard the distro they ship it with would be to
Speakup-enable. I played with Webmin on a provider I was going to put a blog
up on once and sometimes those front ends aren't perfect but they help
newbies out.

Hi,
Not that I'm aware of, but that's not the point. This is a PBX, not a
telephone. It's almost necessarily complex. If you're looking to use a
web
front-end in order to make it easier to use, then you may do well to
consider whether this is something you really want to get into.
I'm certain that using a front-end will come back to bite you in the end,
so
I say "dive straight in".

| Well, I have a box with a double talk in it, and my windows box. I want it
on the one with the double talk in so I don't have to dual boot. That's a
lot of the reason I kept the other older box around so I could keep speech
in Linux. I bet just modifying the Iso to put in a talking kernel won't do
it, and then one would get into the kernel config issues of what to pick
that makes the kernel close to the one they provide but with speakup in it.

Hi,
I think he wants to know how he can get the install of Asterisk At Home to
be speech friendly. However, since it appears he has limited speech
resources so can't use his regular box to host Asterisk, I'd think he'd
hit
the same problems.
I personally recommend installing Asterisk on a regular Linux system and
configuring it by hand, or not bothering. Asterisk is highly complicated,
it's get your hands dirty type software that usually generates lots of
questions. the first thing anyone's going to ask if you ask anywhere for
Asterisk help is "What's in <insert config filename here>".

| Maybe there could be. The issues are more with the CS the iso comes with
not being talking than anything else. If I could just get the part that runs
after the S install to run manually on a Fedora I already had on that box,
I could have a talking system that runs Voip and saves a ton of money,
giving me more features than the cable's digital phone plan including the
ability to use soft phones or ATA devices. Assuming one got Kernel sources,
another option would be to hit enter a bunch until things are installed and
recompile a new kernel after I found out the assigned IP address to include
speakup.

| K, some facts.
Asterisk is 100% accessible.
Asterisk is not simple.
Asterisk does not require a special kernel.
You may need additional kernel modules for some PBX hardware, but these
compile separately.
Asterisk works 100% with Speakup
Working asterisk rpms and deb files are available that work with
Speakup, so stick to Fedora 5 or to recent Debian.
There are a fair number of us Speakup users running our own Asterisk PBX
systems. I've got one, and the IVR that answers Capital Accessibility
phone calls is running on our Asterisk server on Fedora.
If you go looking for native voip handsets, many of us are particularly
preferring Snom 320 and the soon to be available Snom 300. I use my 320
all the time. In fact, I now have 3 of them.

Why? Why particularly Asterisk At Home when Asterisk itselfs works
perfectly well with Speakup.
Isn't Asterisk At Home a gui front end to Asterisk? , did I miss

The Asterisk At Home page says it's a web gui. So, if you want it to
work with Speakup, go fix the web markup so it will run with lynx or
elinks or maybe edbrowse.
