[Asterisk-Users] UK X100P installation help

[Tim Robinson]

Paul -
Let me know when you have the cards and if you need any help.   Main 
thing is to ensure that you have each card on a seperate IRQ.  this is 
ESSENTIAL!  Unless the bios is able to assign specific IRQs to specific 
cards it might be a bit of a fiddle.  For £15 you can't go far wrong though.

There are also some new drivers written as a seperate channel visdn 
which I have not yet tried ('if it ain't broke, don't fix...' etc) which 
might be more elegant as they apparently overcome some of the IRQ 
issues.  check the wiki for more details!
