The bristuff mailling list is a great idea.
I have tried to look at the zaphfc driver to see what have changed  
since bristuff 0.2 but the changes seems to be on libpri.
Is your driver based on zaphfc or is this a new driver?
Zaphfc with the patch from http://zaphfc.florz.dyndns.org/ work great  
but when the channel go to sleep, it is unable to wake it up.
Qozap can do that, but not zaphfc.
