Hi all,

Could someone help me to get to the following:-

/usr/share/osso-rtcom/tel.profile


I would like to either delete this, or rename this, how can I do this?

the reason I want to do this is that I primarily use SIP to make calls, and everytime I try to dial out, I have to manually choose that I want to dial out via SIP.

Removing/renaming the above will default the call to go through using SIP credentials.

Thanks for any help.

you probably need to be root, install the rootsh application.

OK, install leafpad as well.

then open xterminal type:

Code:
sudo gainroot
Now you are root

then type

Code:
leafpad /usr/share/osso-rtcom/tel.profile
And it will open the file, in a text editor (like notepad in windows) and you can edit it.

After that, in X Terminal, to delete the profile, run:
Code:
sudo gainroot
rm /usr/share/osso-rtcom/tel.profile
or to rename it (which would hopefully disable it, but that depends on how the profiles are being accessed), run:
Code:
sudo gainroot
mv /usr/share/osso-rtcom/tel.profile /usr/share/osso-rtcom/tel.profile.bak

thanks, I did that and it worked, now how to I get it back, do I just do the same thing in reverse? i.e. mv /usr/share/osso-rtcom/tel.profile.back /usr/share/osso-rtcom/tel.profile

Ok, so I have managed to reverse this, and it is back to normal.

I apologize for my ignorance, I am very new to this.

When I changed the file name, the Cellular option from the phone Dialing Pad (i.e. where it says Call Type) disappeared which is great. But now the default Call Type is Skype. I want the default Call Type to be SIP, but with the flexibility to choose if I want to use Skype or not, and flexibility to use Cellular or not, but default needs to be SIP as that is what I primarily use to make calls from as much as possible.

Any ideas? thanks

I haven't tested it, but try playing with the priorities in /usr/share/osso-rtcom/*.profile.

A dirty hack you could try is renaming the phone profile to to the sip profile and vice-versa(assuming they're in the same folder). No idea if it would work though.
