[ which is the Debian rough equivalent of 'make; make modules-install' ]

You have installed the new modules, but have not yet unloaded the old
kernel modules.

In Debian you'd likely to use:

  /etc/init.d/asterisk zaptel-fix

In some other places you'll use something like:

  /etc/init.d/asterisk stop
  /etc/init.d/zaptel restart
  /etc/init.d/asterisk start

Basically you need to unload all the Zaptel modules. And in order to do
that, you need to first stop every program that has a Zaptel device
open. That is normally Asterisk, but also ztmonitor or whatever.

(You can also reboot. But Zaptel upgrade is not a kernel upgrade and
does not warant a reboot. If in your system it requires, your init
scripts are broken)
