[Asterisk-Users] Epia C3 Linux

[Bryce Chidester]

It's a common (and commonly overlooked) problem and whenever there  
appears to be no logic behind irrational behavior, the RAM is the  
first place I look. Because the RAM is effectively changing the  
running program's code at the bit level, any and all actions are  
unpredictable, along with their results.
