Kernel Support for DAHDI/Wanpipe After Fresh Debian 12 Install — 6.1.0-32 No Longer Available?

[Hasham (Hasham Wahaib)]

Hello FreePBX Community,

I recently performed a fresh install of Debian 12 (Bookworm) in preparation for setting up FreePBX 17 along with DAHDI to support my Digium TE133 E1 card.

Following the official FreePBX 17 installation documentation (link), I understand that:

The latest confirmed supported kernel for DAHDI/Wanpipe is 6.1.0-32-amd64
And that FreePBX DAHDI install script depends on matching dahdi-linux-kmod packages for the active kernel.

However, after my install, I found that my system is using a newer kernel (e.g., 6.1.0-39) and:

• I am unable to install DAHDI — it fails due to missing dahdi-linux-kmod for the newer kernel.
• Attempts to manually install linux-image-6.1.0-32-amd64 and headers from Debian mirrors or snapshot.debian.org fail — the .deb packages return 404 Not Found, suggesting that version has been removed or archived.
• I also checked snapshot.debian.org using multiple date ranges, but could not locate a valid mirror for:
  • linux-image-6.1.0-32-amd64_6.1.29-1_amd64.deb
  • linux-headers-6.1.0-32-amd64
  • linux-headers-6.1.0-32-common

My Questions:

1. Has anyone successfully installed FreePBX 17 + DAHDI on a newer kernel (e.g., 6.1.0-35, 6.1.0-38, 6.1.0-39)?
2. Is there any confirmed DAHDI support or compatible dahdi-linux-kmod for kernels newer than 6.1.0-32?
3. Does Sangoma or anyone in the community have access to a mirror or local backup of the signed kernel 6.1.0-32 + headers (.deb packages), or an ISO that includes it?
4. Is there any roadmap or ongoing work by Sangoma to add support for newer kernels in DAHDI/Wanpipe drivers?

My Setup:

• Debian 12 Bookworm (Netinstall ISO)
• Kernel: 6.1.0-39-amd64
• FreePBX 17 (clean install)
• Digium TE133 for E1 PRI
• Trying to install DAHDI + Wanpipe via official install script (--dahdi)

Any help, advice, or direct .deb links would be hugely appreciated

Thanks in advance!

6.1.0-35

Yes, try that one please. Or 6.1.0-37. We are constantly updating DAHDI as new kernels are released, according to developer and QA resource availability.
