Howto configure the Linux kernel / drivers / telephony


Telephony device configuration

Telephony Support[]

  • Option: PHONE
    • Kernel Versions: 2.6.15.6 ...
    • (on/off/module) Linux telephony support
      Say Y here if you have a telephony card, which for example allows you to use a regular phone for voice-over-IP applications.
      Note: this has nothing to do with modems. You do not need to say Y here in order to be able to use a modem under Linux.
      To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will be called phonedev.


  • Option: PHONE_IXJ
    • Kernel Versions: 2.6.15.6 ...
    • (on/off/module) QuickNet Internet LineJack/PhoneJack support
    • depends on PHONE
      Say M if you have a telephony card manufactured by Quicknet Technologies, Inc. These include the Internet PhoneJACK and Internet LineJACK Telephony Cards. You will get a module called ixj.
      For the ISA versions of these products, you can configure the cards using the isapnp tools (pnpdump/isapnp) or you can use the isapnp support. Please read <file:Documentation/telephony/ixj.txt>.
      For more information on these cards, see Quicknet's web site at: <http://www.quicknet.net/>.
      If you do not have any Quicknet telephony cards, you can safely say N here.


  • Option: PHONE_IXJ_PCMCIA
    • Kernel Versions: 2.6.15.6 ...
    • (on/off/module) QuickNet Internet LineJack/PhoneJack PCMCIA support
    • depends on PHONE_IXJ && PCMCIA
      Say Y here to configure in PCMCIA service support for the Quicknet cards manufactured by Quicknet Technologies, Inc. This changes the card initialization code to work with the card manager daemon.
