Someone new who's left us a wealth of information so we can diagnose the 
problem quickly and help him find a timely solution.

<sigh>

When you take your car to the mechanic, do you simply say "It's broken.  It 
doesn't run the way it should." or do you give him some details.  In this 
case:

- Distribution of Linux
- Source of your Asterisk binaries (distribution packages, did you compile 
yourself?)
- Version of Asterisk
- Has it ever worked
- Can you pinpoint what causes it to crash

I mean honestly, how do you expect us to help?
