You might like to take a look at FreePBX (http://www.freepbx.org/).
That is the way I have been leaning (and I have had a couple of unsuccessful attempts at installing on Ubuntu).
It's CentOS based, which is a pain if you hate RPM-based distros (which I do), but there are destructions kicking around for installing it in Ubuntu. I tried that about a month ago and gave up as it was a time-sink and fairly pointless. I just installed the default in a VM and it works fine with Soho66.
OK, that sounds like a plan. Except that what I really want to achieve is have it running in a hosted VM somewhere which means installing from tarball. Hopefully it'll be straightforward if I pick a CentOS VM to start from though.
It's very comprehensive, so quite a learning curve!
I don't mind learning (in fact that's part of the reason for doing it), I just don't want to mess around with the installation process!
I'd be much happier with apt-get install freepbx (or yum install freepbx) if only so that the distro has responsibility for security patching, though.
