[Freeswitch-users] question regarding rpm installation

[Perazim]

I am a new user to freeswitch.

I have followed the wiki instructions for installing from rpms on a
fresh centos 6.2 i686 system with updates. I saw the note that the rpms
were beta but there should also be no problems.

This is the install command I used:

yum install freeswitch-config-vanilla

and it completed without errors however when I connected ekiga softphone to it, most of the test numbers failed.

My question is: Is this rpm based installation out of date or full of errors? 

Should I be installing from git?

Being a new user, I need something I can install that is known to work out of the box for learning how freeswitch works.

Thanks,

Perazim
