Also, TerraSoft sponsored an Asterisk port to YellowDog Linux on PPC - from
what I gather, with full Zaptel support.

I didn't think it's be necessary to run YDL to get Zaptel to work. Does
anyone know if this is the case? From what I understand, as long as zaptel
compiles it's up to udev and the kernel to do the remaining hardware
detection and resource assignment, which should be a distribution-agnostic
process.

Is it possible that this particular chip used in this particular X100P clone
is not supported on LinuxPPC? It is a Motorola 6508 chip, identical to the
SM56 winmodem. A picture of the card is here:

Appreciative for any help.
