Please give me some free drivers of G729... Please

This is the primary reason that most OSS guys hate G729 - it's patent encumbered BIG TIME. Check out this article on the main FS site: http://www.freeswitch.org/node/155 look at the patent claims on G729. G729A is even worse. Add to that the fact that the voice quality is poor and you have a recipe for a codec that telecom geeks don't really care for all that much. -MC
