Ahhhh, okay; that makes sense.

Here's what I get after running vpbscan:
$ sudo /usr/sbin/vpbscan
CARD1:OPENPCI:irq=21 sub=0000 bus-dev:04:02
BOARDS:1
I have attached the output from lspci -vvv on the machine with the X100P
clone, in case you need that.

Hhhmmm, you're right. Somehow I missed yesterday the libvpb postinst
script.

You're right; I see in libvpb's postinst script:
case "$1" in
configure)
if [ ! -e /etc/vpb ]; then
VpbConfigurator || true
fi

Okay, cool.

Haha. Well, fortunately I was able to find the workaround mentioned in
#466729. I use Broadvoice as my VoIP provider with a bring your own
device plan, so Asterisk definitely needs to be up or we don't have
phone service at home. The machine runs unstable and I don't upgrade
it very often, but sometimes I have to do it to avoid falling too far
behind. If something doesn't work after an upgrade and I can't fix it
quickly then that means downgrading (don't think I've had to ever do
that, though.)

Cool. Let me know if you need further information from my system. Glad
to be of assistance.
Cheers,
