[*] HUDlite

[John Lange]

HUD lite looked quite impressive but so far my experience has been that
you had better use it with Trixbox because otherwise its basically not
possible to get it running on a stand-alone installation.

As mentioned at the meeting it requires hudlite-server. hudlite-server
isn't really available other than as a CentOS rpm that appears to be in
an early beta state. I could not get it run under SUSE.

I managed to satisfy the perl modules it needed and install the IRC
server(??!?) but now it just runs and dies without logging or reporting
any errors.

I did an "strace" and found its looking for a mystery
"/var/adm/bin/astwatch.pl" which doesn't exist but there is no way to
know if this is the fatal problem.

All I know for sure is it never gets to the point where it tries to
connect to asterisk or the IRC server.

In addition to all the above problems there is no current documentation
and the perl code is not open source and is in binary form so no hope of
debugging.

I'm tempted to do a trixbox install in an attempt to learn what it
requires to run but that seems like too much effort.

If anyone has any suggestions let me know.
