Hi Shane,

Please reinstall dahdi-modules-3.2.6-voyage:

http://www.voyage.hk/dists/experimental/dahdi/dahdi-modules-3.2.6-voyage_2.6.0+dfsg-0.9428+11.0-1_i386.deb

The problem is that vpmadt032_loader is a closed source binary blob.  And it is not included in the source code of dahdi 
kernel module.  I need to manual extract the binary blob to module source directory in order to build it.

This process is too manual that I am trying to avoid.  Perhaps you should stay away from the hardware that uses binary 
blob in the kernel.

BTW, it is just the firmware loader, I suspect it also needs a firmware as well.

Regards,
