Charter Telephone reviews, boylston?

by John Stoffel

Hi, Anyone on here using Charter Telephone VOIP service? I've currently got Verizon, but the wife hates it because our phone lines get flaky all the time, esp when it rains. So I'm thinking to save money and combine all my stuff onto Charter. I've already got High Speed internet and regular old cable. Not wild about Digital Cable since I'm happy with Tivo and I don't want yet another set top box to have to deal with... So, any horror stories about Charter Phone VOIP quality and service? Thanks, John

Re: [Wlug] WLUG bbq aug 18?host?

We could always do it at WPI if nobody is able to host this year. They have grills that can be used for events and such, and I'm willing to do the grilling.

I think I did exactly what you noted in your instructions (below), and it still is not working for me. Is there any chance you could setup an Ubuntu 16.04 test in a VM to confirm that I'm not insane? >>> >>> > John> I put it after the AM_CPPFLAGS definition up top.

The link command is this one: gcc -g -O2 -Wall -Wno-unused-but-set-variable -Werror -lm -o xlog [many *.o files snipped] logfile/liblogfile.a -lgtk- x11-2.0 -lgdk-x11-2.0 -lpangocairo-1.0 -latk-1.0 -lcairo -lgdk_pixbuf-2.0 -lgio-2.0 -lpangoft2-1.0 -lpango-1.0 -lgobject- 2.0 -lglib-2.0 -lfontconfig -lfreetype -L/usr/local/lib -lhamlib Notice where it put the "-lm". It should be right after -lhamlib but it isn't. When I cut / paste the link command and manually make that modification, the link is successful. I tried a different modification. I took out the AM_LDFLAGS entirely in src/Makefile.am, and then I modified the following line by appending "-lm". This worked(!) for me. xlog_LDADD = logfile/liblogfile.a \ @GTK_LIBS@ @HAMLIB_LIBS@ -lm Can you confirm that this fix also works for you? Thanks!!

Well, unfortunately I live in a tiny college apartment, otherwise I'd be happy to offer. Unfortunately, I'll have to pass.
