I just got the new developer TDM11B, but I got some problems with it.  Since 
Digium is on vacation, I figured I'd ask here first:

I installed the TDM11B, but have not attached any phone lines, yet.  I just 
want to work with the demo over SIP first.

But here's the story, after installing the card on a Dell SC420 (further 
identifying info comes from dmesg):

FreeBSD 5.3-RELEASE #0: Fri Nov  5 04:19:18 UTC 2004
    root at harlow.cse.buffalo.edu:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC
Timecounter "i8254" frequency 1193182 Hz quality 0
CPU: Intel(R) Celeron(R) CPU 2.53GHz (2527.01-MHz 686-class CPU)

when init runs /usr/local/etc/rc.d/zaptel.sh I get the following info:

Zapata Telephony Interface Registered on major 196

FXS detach!
We failed: 5
device_attach: wcfxs0 attach returned 5

I don't get why it says we failed.  I thought maybe it was the order that the 
modules are loaded (currently they are: zaptel, wcfxo, wcfxs) but I get the 
same error if I reverse wcfxo and wcfxs.  

I get the following devices created in /dev/zap, but none of them are 
configured (i.e. if I `cat /dev/zap/timer` I get "device not configured").

crw-rw-r--  1 root  wheel  230, 254 Dec 25 12:46 channel

crw-rw-r--  1 root  wheel  230, 253 Dec 25 12:46 timer

I can make asterisk run, and I can connect to it using a software SIP phone.  
I can even hear the demo, but it is waaaaayyyy choppy.  So I figure that the 
choppiness will diminish once I can get the FXS module to load.

So ... how do I get wcfxs to load?

Thanks!
