[Asterisk-Users] quad fxo

[Michael Sandee]

The bus isn't wrong... debian is wrong. Like everything in debian... it 
ships with an old pci.ids
(No flames intended... but still :P )

replace yours with one from:
http://pciids.sourceforge.net/

And It *should* report it better... (Didn't verify)
Not that any of this matters... Just load the driver and get on with it.
