Not that I know of, just the standard RHEL 4 advisories. I suspect the TDM 
card may be broken. Before I rebooted the leds of both ports were lit, 
just the FXS port was dead.

I rebooted to see if it would help, it didn't. Now when I load the driver 
it gives some sort of message that it couldn't initialize port #1. The 
console suggests to verify whether the power cable is plugged in to the 
TDM (it is, i checked).

Disabling the FXS port works, the driver will then initialize and asterisk 
will start (obviously without FXS port).

I can use the PSTN line on the TDM card for inbound/outbound calls, I 
guess if it really were a power problem then the FXO port wouldn't work 
either?
