[asterisk-users] AEX800 (TDM800 Express) - not detected

[Mark J Elkins]

I have a AEX800 PCI Express card - sort of a TDM800 with PCI-Express.
(or AEX844 - 4FXS & 4FXO)
I downloaded Asterisk Now - and have got this loaded on a new
motherboard (Intel with 3 PCI, 3 PCI Express - etc).

(Downside on PCI-Express is the physical support the express slot gives
(very little) compared with an 'old' standard PCI slot!!!)

With only this card in the box.... "Asterisknow" gives me...

"no functional digium card found in /proc/zaptel" - or words to that effect.


lspci gives me:

OK - so this is a Dual Core CPU, running in 64bit mode  :-) 

..but is this card not supported in the OS that Digium release in their ISO image?

Also - the e1000 is not detected, so we added an old e100 card -and-
neither is the Marvel IDE controller - attached to the ICH9 SATA disk controller - which makes installation fun (we used a USB Flash stick with the ISO image).

The Motherboard is an Intel Dragon-tail Peak (P35 chip set) - too bleeding edge???

Help? (Clues - etc)
