Summary:                    Astribank firmwares do not load without fxload
installed
Description: 
We had 3 x 32 channel Astribanks, and tried with both the latest 1.4 branch
and the branch off the Xorcom website.

We ran the install_prereq scripts, and all the requirements were present.

When the card showed up, it was 0x50 meaning (according to the
documentation) that the firmware had not been loaded and was unable to be
found.

The files were in the /usr/share/zaptel directory as expected, but the
cards never initialised.

We checked dmesg and it said that fxload was not able to be found.

Checking Google revealed that fxload was used for other hardware so we
tried

apt-get install fxload

This immediately fixed the problem and all came up fine.

My suggestion would be to check for the fxload package, or alter the
documentation under the section that refers to lsusb status to include a
warning to make sure that you have fxload installed.
