IP BAT CDMA Unboxing Review - Here's what you'll get - Alarm System Store

We have desk phones and we have softphones. These softphones are great, except for when we don’t have a client on Linux.

Since winehq decided to reject my submission, I’m going to post what I did here to get IPC to work properly under Fedora 23, Wine 1.9.0 staging.

This installation was done via PlayOnLinux, choosing a "non-listed" program. Keep in mind that PlayOnLinux is separate from wine development. But, this should NOT stop any user from being able to do it in their own manner. However, I used the System Wine, which is 1.9.0 staging in Fedora 23's current base repo (as of Jan 13, 2016).

*******************************************INSTALL******************************************* More than likely, you can emulate this setup on multiple wine versions without issues, or on different distributions. These are the steps that I took to ensure installation:

1. Ensure crypt32 has an override (native,builtin)  a. This is because the certificates and other things won't install properly, and the installation will crash 2. Emulate as Windows XP. I could not get this to work under 7 or higher. 3. Run the setup and install the program. At this point, it may crash while trying to open the communicator. This is fine. 4. Open communicator and go through the Audio Tuning Wizard. It may crackle, etc. But you should be able to go right through it without any issues. 5. Do a test call.

If you have issues, consider doing the following (regardless of POL or not): 1. If you have issues, install corefonts and crypt32 to your wineprefix. 2. If you are using POL, select the additional software for: POL_Function_OverrideDLL, POL_Install_corefonts, POL_Install_crypt32

Special Notes:

-> If you are using this over a VPN, you it is highly recommended, to prevent any headaches, to set the Communicator to use a specific IP. This is how: 1. Click the menu icon in the corner -> Preferences 2. Click Audio -> Network (button) 3. Select "Use this address" and place the IP your VPN interface has 4. Press OK. It will reload.

-> Fedora has pulseaudio by default (most modern distros should). If you have crackling issues, fix it like so:

# sed -i.bak '/load-module module-udev-detect/ s/$/ tsched=0/' /etc/pulse/default.pa (Verify...) # grep tsched /etc/pulse/default.pa

To do it manually, if you don't trust sed...

# vi /etc/pulse/default.pa (Scroll down to load-module module-udev-detect) (Add tsched=0 to the end)
