Bill,

To repeat what Tim said, if you're eligible I would recommend
contacting Digium's support department. There are many variables
with a new install and Digium support would be happy to help you
troubleshoot.

Some other things to try in order to isolate the drivers / hardware
change from the Asterisk change. You could:

a) Install the exact same versions of Asterisk / DAHDI that you used
previously on the new server with Centos 5.8.

b) Run a local pattern test to verify the host <-> card
communication is valid. If you have problems here there may be a
framebuffer configured or a disk controller running in combined mode
preventing the cards interrupt handler from running in a timely
fashion.

c) Use dahdi_monitor to record the audio on the channel you're
testing with and open it up with audacity and verify that the DTMF
looks correct. If it does, then most likely there is a problem with
chan_dahdi reading the audio from the drivers quickly enough.

d) Ensure that you are only loading the Asterisk modules you need in
case you're running on a system with limited memory and the asterisk
process is dropping audio while paging in code. (See DAHLIN-241 [1])
