right now I don't have any digium cards installed in my PC so the only thing I need at the moment is the ztdummy module for the purpose of timer functionality, is't it? I am running Debian OS kernel 2.6. I installed the zaptel package checked the udev rules everything is ok so at the moment zaptel package doesn't   need any further treatment, am I right?
