[asterisk-users] Asterisk Not Starting after YUM Update

[Ron Wheeler]

DAHDI might be the culprit.
You may have had a better version from Asterisk than the "new" one that 
YUM got you.

Check to see if YUM gave you a new DAHDI. Who's your daddy now?

You may want to rebuild the Asterisk DAHDI and install it over the DAHDI 
from your Linux distro.
