Here is some info for setting up Linux. I don't get into PBX or ATA details here. Modify username and folders as needed. Most instructions are for CentOS, some also apply to other distributions. Install CentOS 5.4 x64 If you don't choose a GUI option you will have to deal with any missing packages and start x yourself. Create a user called stsuser I disabled the firewall for this setup example. update first yum update login as stsuser mkdir downloads Install Skype Download Skype - static version 2.1.0.81 to /home/stsuser/downloads su (use sudo for Ubuntu) cd /opt tar jxvf /home/stsuser/downloads/skype_static-2.1.0.81.tar.bz2 ln -s skype_static-2.1.0.81 skype ln -s /opt/skype /usr/share/skype ln -s /opt/skype/skype /usr/bin/skype On a CentOS Server some additional packages are needed: yum install libXv yum install libXScrnSaver yum groupinstall "X Window System" yum install alsa-lib On a Server twm will be used during the configuration process so some changes are needed to make it work: vi /etc/X11/twm/system.twmrc - add RandomPlacement above NoGrabServer line. cp /etc/X11/twm/system.twmrc /home/stsuser/.twmrc chown stsuser:stsuser /home/stsuser/.twmrc exit Ubuntu 64 bit distros need 32 bit libraries (file not found error) Install getlibs-all.deb package from here cd /opt/skype_static-2.1.0.81 sudo getlibs skype Setup snd-dummy - required if no sound hardware su (or sudo) /sbin/modprobe snd-dummy gedit (or vi) /etc/rc.local add /sbin/modprobe snd-dummy before exit 0: exit Test that skype works on it's own. cd /home/stsuser For a Server, first startx skype & Install Sun/Oracle's Java - Do NOT use openjdk Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre CentOS and Ubuntu can use following procedure: Download file: jre-6u18-linux-x64.bin to /home/stsuser/downloads from Java (Linux JRE x64 version.) su - (Don't miss the minus, use sudo on Ubuntu) cd /opt /bin/sh /home/stsuser/downloads/jre-6u18-linux-x64.bin Method 1: alternatives --install /usr/bin/java java /opt/jre1.6.0_18/bin/java 2 alternatives --config java select correct java install if incorrect. Method 2: ln -s /opt/jre1.6.0_18/bin/java /usr/bin/java java -version confirm correct version. exit Install Xvfb su CentOS: yum install Xvfb Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install Xvfb exit Add stsuser to audio group - Needed for automatic bootup. su usermod -a -G audio stsuser exit Install SipToSis Download SipToSis to /home/stsuser/downloads mkdir /home/stsuser/siptosis cd /home/stsuser/siptosis unzip /home/stsuser/downloads/tmp_SipToSis.zip (fix file name as needed) chmod +x SipToSis_linux skype & login or create your skype account. ./SipToSis_linux accept API request. At this point you should be able to make echo test from an ATA,Softphone or PBX using the 55 shortcut and the SipToSis contact url. PBX users should setup SipToSis to register with the PBX before going further. Single channel users only chmod +x stsTrunk_linux gedit (or vi) stsTrunk_linux runuser=stsuser scriptpath=/home/stsuser/siptosis displayMethod=XVFB Single channel boot setup su gedit (or vi) /etc/rc.local Add following line before exit 0: su -l stsuser -c "/home/stsuser/siptosis/stsTrunk_linux boot" Note: if using snd-dummy, make sure modprobe is before siptosis startup command. exit Pulseaudio removal sudo apt-get remove pulseaudio then reboot. If you didn't have a sound card when installing Ubuntu run: sudo alsactl init Patching snd-dummy for more streams: Ubuntu Procedure Alsa dummy.c modification: Get package Driver (alsa-driver) 1.0.22.1 from Alsa Project Download cd /usr/src sudo tar jxvf /pathtodownload/alsa-driver-1.0.22.1.tar.bz2 cd /usr/src/alsa-driver-1.0.22.1/alsa-kernel/drivers Change line 152: static int pcm_substreams[SNDRV_CARDS] = {[0 ... (SNDRV_CARDS - 1)] = 8}; to: static int pcm_substreams[SNDRV_CARDS] = {[0 ... (SNDRV_CARDS - 1)] = 128}; cd /usr/src/alsa-driver-1.0.22.1 sudo ./configure sudo make sudo make install reboot more /proc/asound/version - should show Alsa Driver version 1.0.22.1 This patch also works on 1.0.23/1.0.24 driver except it's line 66 instead. There is some good info for compiling Alsa here. Once the new snd-dummy is in place configure all skype clients (Mic/Spkrs/Ring) - set to Dummy, Dummy PCM (hw:1,0) or whatever it ends up as. |
