Thanks Steve,

Yeah, I didn't realized I'd needed those other files.  Once I got that, 
everything else sorta fell into place ( er..well, in a manner of 
speaking.  Had to manually patch the make file, then I had to learn that 
spaces are not "OK" in make files.  Then something was borked; I 
couldn't do make install from the asterisk directory, so I had to copy 
the so files to asterisk's lib directory.  Then I had to copy 
libspandsp.so.0 to /usr/lib instead of where it's isntalled.  But other 
then that....:)  )


Thanks for the pointer, now to get to testin'.
