[Asterisk-Users] TDM11B modprobe wcfxs fails

Hi, 

I got my TDM11B and am trying to get it to work on my PC.
However, I'm having difficulty getting the wcfxs driver to
load.  I've Googled this problem, and while there are others
who have ran into the same problem, none of the solutions
work for me.

I would very much appreciate it if you could suggest things
I could try to resolve this problem.


Details follow.

The PC is somewhat old - Tyan S2054, which has Intel i810 -
but I don't think this would be a problem.  I
clean-installed Debian Sarge and am using 2.4.27 kernel.

The TDM11B has its own IRQ (according to lspci -v).

lspci -v shows the card as 

  0000:01:04.0 Communication controller: Tiger Jet Network Inc. Tiger3XX Modem/ISDN interface

I'm following the instructions in 
http://www.asteriskdocs.org/modules/tinycontent/content/docbook/current_v1/docs-html/book1.html.

I'm using the Asterisk/Zaptel software that's on the CD that
came with the TDM11B.  It has version 1.0.7.

The zaptel driver loads fine.  The problem I'm having is
with the wcfxs driver.

  matsuri:~# modprobe zaptel
  matsuri:~# modprobe wcfxs
  /lib/modules/2.4.27/misc/wcfxs.o: init_module: No such device

        You may find more information in syslog or the output from dmesg

I've tried all the PCI slots (4 of them).  I get the same
error.

The power cable is connected to the card.  I've verified
that there is power to the cable and also tried different
power cable.

The kernel used above is built by myself and it's not the
default kernel.  (The default kernel that gets installed by
the Debian Installer couldn't even load the zaptel driver -
I get lots of missing references.)


Thanks,
Fumi Okushi
