[Asterisk-Users] failed to compile zaptel on redhat

...or isn't running the 2.6 kernel.  

I had the same problem with the CVS on Friday (but not from the week
before).  It turns out that moduleparam.h is included as part of a bug fix
on 2.6 but instead of being #ifdef'd for 2.6 and later, the inclusion was
absolute causing compilations of zaptel on earlier Linux kernels to fail.

The advice I received was:

The culprit is bugfix #3334, it is supposed to fix a 2.6 kernel issue
but ended up messing up Zaptel on 2.4.

I have edited:

pciradio.c tor2.c torisa.c wcfxo.c wct1xxp.c wct4xxp.c wctdm.c
wcte11xp.c zaptel.c ztdummy.c ztdynamic.c

and changed:

#include <linux/moduleparam.h>

to:

#ifdef LINUX26
#include <linux/moduleparam.h>
#endif

No, it is part of the virgin kernel sources and defines the kernel
modules parameters api. If he does not have it, then it looks like
he does not have the full kernel sources installed.
