[asterisk-users] Do I need to run #modprobe zaptel for Digium

[Alex Balashov]

Bilal,

The '#' symbol is part of a root prompt, not the command.  In fact, if you 
run a command in this way, it will not work because the shell will 
perceive you as trying to enter a comment, as one would do in a 
shellscript.

The Zapata modules have a series of interdependencies based on the logical 
decomposition of the code;  it is not necessary that the zaptel module 
"do" anything from a functional point of view, as far as interacting with
the hardware, for it to be a necessary dependency.  It may implement
certain global utility or API functions -- symbols the wctdm module needs
to do some of its work and interface with the rest of the Zapata layer.
Programming is an abstract thing.  :-)

Take care,

-- Alex
