[asterisk-users] Zaptel wct2xxp driver causes LEDs to go black and RED alarm

[Jason K. Carter]

The problem was with ACPI screwing up interrupt routing.  Added

pci=routeirq

to /boot/grub/grub.conf to turn off acpi for interrupt routing.  Now 
I've got two green LEDs.

Thanks to Jolan Luff for figuring this out!
