[Asterisk-Users] Unable to Specify Channel 1 - no such device oraddress

[Tom Walsh]

When trying to start asterisk with a four-port FXS/FXO card I get the 
following error: "Unable to Specify Channel 1 - no such device or address" 
(Channel 1 should be the first FXO port). I looked in the asterisk-users 
mailing list archive and found one person who had this problem but did not 
find an answer. I am using the sample configuration file lines provided by 
Digium. lsmod says my wcfxo and zaptel modules are loaded Ok, apparently. 
What could be wrong or where should I look.

Gene,

Having just been through the same problem recently I can tell you with a 
fair amount of certainty that your motherboard is not PCI spec 2.2 
compliant.

Double check your motherboard specs.

This was my problem.

Hope that helps.
