When I said that getting the Zaptel kernel drivers into Linus' tree wasn't practical at the moment I was speaking mostly about getting the cooperation of the original authors (Digium, www.digium.com) in maintaining the drivers in the kernel tree. There is also the matter of the time it would take to have the drivers reviewed by Linus, et. al., get into a released kernel, get the new kernel packaged up for Fedora, etc., etc. and I'm anxious (as I'm sure many are) to get Asterisk into Fedora Extras. So, until such time as the Zaptel drivers get into the stock kernel, I'd like to have the drivers packaged separately. Also, it is true that the Zaptel drivers are not required to run Asterisk you lose some significant functionality, including meetme conferences. Jeff
