This is a known issue and crops up on the list from time to time.  For
some reason, the card will change is PCI bus ID.  It is set back to the
correct ID by a cold reboot.

To work around this, edit the wcte1xxp.c in the zaptel directory so that
the pci_device_id structure becomes:

static struct pci_device_id t1xxp_pci_tbl[] = {
        { 0xe159, 0x0001, 0x71fe, PCI_ANY_ID, 0, 0, (unsigned long)
"Digium Wildcard TE110P T1/E1 Board" },
        { 0xe159, 0x0001, 0x79fe, PCI_ANY_ID, 0, 0, (unsigned long)
"Digium Wildcard TE110P T1/E1 Board" },
        { 0xe159, 0x0001, 0x795e, PCI_ANY_ID, 0, 0, (unsigned long)
"Digium Wildcard TE110P T1/E1 Board" },
        { 0xe159, 0x0001, 0x79de, PCI_ANY_ID, 0, 0, (unsigned long)
"Digium Wildcard TE110P T1/E1 Board" },
        { 0xe159, 0x0001, 0x797e, PCI_ANY_ID, 0, 0, (unsigned long)
"Digium Wildcard TE110P T1/E1 Board" },
        { 0 }
};

This should allow reboots but YMMV (well, it works on my server!).
