More Package Installation

-Ran apt-get update to make sure Ubuntu was updated (following general instructions here)


-Trying to figure out the Linux Kernel Header business...

cat /proc/ver

yields:

Linux version 2.6.32.1-rscloud (root@builder.slicehost.com) (gcc version 4.4.1 (Ubuntu 4.4.1-4ubuntu9) ) #15 SMP Mon Feb 22 13:22:15 UTC 2010

However

apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r`

unsurprisingly gives the error

E: Couldn't find package linux-headers-2.6.32.1-rscloud

Tried various combinations of "apt-get install linux-headers-2.6.32***" without success. Left alone for now, but possibly not needed? Will come back to this later. It also might not be possible to install things like this on the VM.

-Following instructions here (which after some Googling seem to be applicable to the cloud setup)...

-Downloaded Asterisk 1.6.2.6 (in cd /usr/src)

-Downloaded ilbc codec

awk -f extract-cfile.awk rfc3951.txt

Zaptel apparently not needed as we can't add a Digium card.

Taking a break for a while.
