Uncomment that if you expect it to work.  The module should be listed in 
ZAPMODS not in rc.modules.

Yes we're sure.

Since you have ZAPMODS commented out, the zaptel init script doesn't 
know which modules it should be using.  I can assure you that this 
script does work properly if you have the configuration set correctly.

Vincent, all of this is really Astlinux specific and would be better 
handled on that list instead.
