Thank you for the replies.  It was my understanding that rebuilding the 
kernel was necessary in 2.4 but everything needed was already included 
in 2.6 series.  My bad I guess.  I was trying to find a use for old 
cards I have, but If i'm going to have to use a Sangoma, I'll just use 
Vyatta which supports them out of the box.  Too bad that the agreement 
between Vyatta and Digium has not resulted in them supporting Digium 
cards yet.
