Description:Cisco 7906 handset is not yet supported by chan_skinny

[Aug  3 11:13:33] WARNING[4713]:  Unsupported device type '369 (7906)' found.

****** ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ******

Picking up handset leads to:

-- Starting simple switch on 'xxx@yyy'

however when digits are dialled on the handset, nothing happens at the Asterisk end (no outbound call is initiated)

I also managed to get Asterisk to segfault whilst trying to get the phone working - partial backtrace is attached.

Small patch to add a single line. Let me know how it goes.

There is an embedded bug in that you shouldn't get a simple switch for an unsupported device, but we'll look at that separately.

OK, the phone registers & displays the line's extension number on the display.

I pick up the phone and get a dialtone, I can dial the destination OK, and Asterisk routes the call correctly. However, the audio in the handset remains a dialtone, rather than the actual call.. :-)

Thank you for your help with this. I may have to switch a couple of the phones to SIP, but will try and keep one skinny phone around as long as I can for testing. If all else fails, I will have access to my personal server again in a month or two, and will be able to do more detailed testing then..

Can you set "skinny set debug on" and provide the console printout of your call attempts.

Also, can you try two other situations, after having made the call, try a redial. Also, try calling in to the 7906.

This should already be resolved in trunk with the addition of the v17 protocol handling.
