fcstab is a big static array in the zatel conde. It is also replicated
in two other udersace programs. As it is static, there should be no
references to it on run-time. 

Anybody for a patch to remove it?

The code in the xpp subdirectory will soon be replced by the one in
trunk. I would appreciate bug reports on that one.

Anyway, whereas all the above should be fixed, I don't think they pose
any problem with your system. What zaptel hardware do you have, BTW?

Is zaptel loaded? What's the output of 'ls /proc/zaptel' ? (error:
zaptel is not loaded or procfs not mounted. nothing: zaptel is loaded.
No spans. Something: at least one span).

What error messages does the kernel give you? I'm not sure where the
kernel logs end up in SuSE, but there's always:

dmesg | tail
