asterisk users - May 2006 - X100P not recognised on FreeBSD system

I've just received an OEM Wildcard X100P FXO card. Installing into my 
FreeBSD 5.4-RELEASE box it doesn't appear to be recognised at all. Since 
it's the first time I've put a PCI card in this machine I've just 
dropped a Netgear ethernet card in to make sure there isn't something 
fundamentally wrong with the motherboard, but that works fine.

Is there anything else I should check / try before assuming the X100P is 
faulty?

Since
have you downloaded, compiled and installed the zaptel-bsd drivers ? if you 
haven't, instructions for getting them are at 
http://www.voip-info.org/wiki-FreeBSD+zaptel

for the X100P, you'd need to kldload zaptel.ko and wcfxo.ko, though be 
warned that the wcfxo.ko driver has not had much development in yonks.

[snip log list. The X100P is not listed]

The card should appear on th list of PCI devices. 

I don't know FreeBSD, but I assume that the problem here is not related
to the Zaptel driver itself. Either a hardware problem or some strange
problem with the kernel support of the PCI bus (not likely).
