Majed,

I've patched dahdi-tools and modified indications.conf with Kuwait tones
taken from http://www.3amsystems.com/wireline/tone-search.htm

indications.conf:
---
country = kw

[kw]
ringcadence = 1000,4000
dial = 425
busy = 425/500,0/500
ring = 425/1000,0/4000
congestion = 425/250,0/250
callwaiting = 425/1000,0/4000
info = 950/330,1400/330,1800/330,0/1000
stutter = 425/400,0/40
---

Attached zonedata.c include Kuwait tones, you need to download
dahdi-tools source, diff the two versions if its only adding Kuwait
tones you could replace the file, other wise you need to merge manually.
this was modified for dahdi-tools-2.2.0

Note: there are no guarantee that this patch will work, since I failed
to get my line to work properly as it is still starting/hanging up every
second. And I'm not sure if its software or hardware issue, or maybe
from the line itself.

on bootup the tone zone is registered properly
dahdi: Registered tone zone 41 (Kuwait)

Hope it helps.

Regards,

Ahmad Al-Ibrahim
