+Echo Canceller
+--------------
+In DAHDI (software) echo cancellers are separate modules, that are 
+automatically loaded if their name is used in /etc/dahdi/system.conf .
+dahdi_genconf, the configuration generator, thus defaults to creating a 
+system.conf with an echocanceller line for each channel. By default it is 
+'mg2' (the MG2 echo canceller) but this can be changed by setting 
+'echocanceller' (see the sample genconf_parameters file).
+
+The Debian package of dahdi-linux is patched to include support of the 
+echo canceller OSLEC. Thus dahdi-tools has been patched accordingly to
+make it the default echo canceller.
+
+However if you, for any strange reason, use a version of the DAHDI
+kernel modules that does not include a working dahdi_echocan_oslec.ko,
+just set in /etc/dahdi/genconf_parameters:
+
+  echo_can mg2

-Blacklisting modules
---------------------
-DAHDI, As Zaptel before it, has an inherent problem with the dependency 
-on the order of loading of modules (strictly speaking: of order of 
-registration with DAHDI, but in most cases it's the same). The long term
-solution for that would require some changes to both DAHDI and
-Asterisk's chan_dahdi.
-
-In the mean time, upstream has resorted to blacklist all the DAHDI
-modules through modprobe.conf(5) configuration in order to give explicit
-control of their load order in /etc/dahdi/modules . However in Debian
-(at least as of Lenny) the init scripts are run with
-MODPROBE_OPTIONS=-qb . This means that all the blacklisted modules will
-be silently refused to load. See
-http://bugs.digium.com/view.php?id=13910 .
-
-While this can be trivially patched in the init script, I feel
-uncomfortable to fix it in order to allow a workaround to work. Another
-way to explicitly control the order of modules load is using
-/etc/modules . You'll probably need to write the same list of modules in
-/etc/modules and /etc/dahdi/modules .
