asterisk users - Apr 2009 - Nothing at /proc/zaptel with new Digium TE201

This is a new installation.
Here are the specs of my system:
Linux asterisk 2.6.21.5-smp #2 SMP Tue Jun 19 14:58:11 CDT 2007 i686 
Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU           E5420  @ 2.50GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux

08:08.0 Ethernet controller: Digium, Inc. Unknown device 8000 (rev 11)
(ethernet?? first time with a card like that for me)

dmesg
Zapata Telephony Interface Registered on major 196
Zaptel Version: 1.4.12.1
Zaptel Echo Canceller: MG2

proc & dev
root at asterisk:/proc/zaptel# ls
root at asterisk:/proc/zaptel# 
root at asterisk:/dev/zap# ls -la * 
crw-rw---- 1 root root 196, 254 2009-04-02 01:40 channel
crw-rw---- 1 root root 196,   0 2009-04-02 01:40 ctl
crw-rw---- 1 root root 196, 255 2009-04-02 01:40 pseudo
crw-rw---- 1 root root 196, 253 2009-04-02 01:40 timer

and genzapconf -l does nothing.

Help! I really don't know what is happening.
The card is a PCIe

And that's everything... I think.

It appears as if you have a TE121 installed in your system which is 
serviced by the wcte12xp driver.  Does 'lsmod | grep wcte12xp' show that
the wcte12xp driver is loaded?  If not, what happens when you run 
'modprobe wcte12xp'?

Being in that directory is generally not a good idea:

A bit like:

  http://docs.tzafrir.org.il/dahdi-tools/README.Astribank.html#_empty_proc_dir

Nothing critical relies on /proc/zaptel . genzaptelconf / zapconf do use
that information, and if it has failed to create, they will see nothing.
