OK, now I have that much going.  I can use the S100U to make calls to my 
other server.

Now there is a new twist.  The quality is horrible, and I notice when I 
run top that the asterisk process is eating up >96% of the CPU.  It pegs 
right as I start it and stays that way without any sort of letup.

On the other machine, asterisk when idle doesn't even show up on the 
first screen of top's processes.

How could I figure out what asterisk could be doing with the CPU?  The 
second machine is a laptop not a desktop, but the processors are 
comparable and this same laptop has been in long service w/o any 
hardware problems, including quite a few USB-based things.

Not sure how I can look "inside" to see what asterisk could be doing. .

Thx.
