asterisk users - Jun 2004 - panic() panic() panic()

Hi all.  I've been trying to build some new systems, and no matter what
I do, if I load the zaptel and tor2 drivers, the system panics within
an hour, even with no traffic.

These systems are using dual Athlon MP 2800 chips with one, two, or
three T400P boards and 2 GB of system memory.

I'm currently using Fedora Core 1, but I also went back to our old
reliable Red Hat 7.3 and the systems still panic()ed.

If I don't start the zaptel driver, they don't panic.  If I start the
zaptel driver, but don't start asterisk, they still panic.  I'm at a
loss of what to try next.

A typical Call Trace from the panic message looks like:

wait_on_irq, [kernel] 0xde
__global_cli [kernel] 0x62
flush_to_ldisc [kernel] 0x126
__run_task_queue [kernel] 0x61
context_thread [kernel] 0x13b
context_thread [kernel] 0x0
context_thread [kernel] 0x0
kernel_thread_helper 0x5

Any ideas?  Thanks...

If you cat /proc/interrupts is anything else sharing with the TEs?

I would suspect IRQ assignment conflicts.  Are all the cards on their own
IRQ's?
