there are lots of subdirectories in there, at least after a rmmod && 
modprobe. I can reboot later to see how it looks like before that.

in /dev/zap there are a lot of devices, but as above, at least after a rmmod 
&& modprobe. I can reboot later to see how it looks like before that.

not when I do a rmmod && modprobe the wcte11xp or wcte12xp respectively, 
without that, it fails.

/usr/sbin/asterisk -U asterisk -G asterisk -vvvg -c

shows a lot of devices:
