Hi All,

This is a request for testing for users of Asterisk 1.4 or 1.6 with any
of the following Digium VoiceBus based cards: TDM2400P, AEX2400, AEX800,
TDM800P, TDM410, TE120P, TE121, and/or TE122.

From a practical standpoint, this branch should allow these boards to
work in more systems / configurations where IRQ misses caused problems
in the past.

The updated wctdm24xxp and wcte12xp drivers are based on Zaptel 1.4 and
work by dynamically increasing the latency they add to the data stream
in 1ms increments until it does not detect any additional IRQ misses.
For example, if your TDM800P card was sharing an interrupt with your
disk controller and you were experiencing problems, this new driver
could, at the cost of a few extra milliseconds of latency, allow the two
boards to peacefully coexist on the same IRQ.

Please feel free to checkout the code on any test servers you may have
and let me know any results. Both the good and the bad are welcome.

To get the code:
svn co http://svn.digium.com/svn/zaptel/team/sruffell/voicebus

Many thanks,
