One thing I'd like to ask your help in:

If you install from xpp/utils (in 1.4 this is enabled by default, and
generally condtioned on building the driver xpp, on 1.2 it requires
runningan explicit 'make -C xpp/utils install'), you'll now also get the
zaptel-perl modules and utilities.

You can also run the directly from the Zaptel source distribution
without installing anything. For instance:

  ./xpp/utils/lszaptel
  ./xpp/utils/zaptel_hardware

They all include documentation in perldoc format:

  perldoc xpp/utils/lszaptel

I would appreciate it if you could take the time to run:

  ./xpp/utils/zaptel_hardware

from an extracted zaptel 1.2.19 / zaptel 1.4.4 tarball or latest SVN,
and report to me if it hasn't found your hardware. Specifically, what
card it is, and what is its PCI ID (from lspci -n).

For PCI cards, Much of the dirty work is done in 
xpp/utils/zconf/Zaptel/Hardware/PCI.pm .
