Anyone successfully receiving faxes with this pkg?

I've tried two instances of the same modem with the same result:

the only difference b/w the two modems is that the 1st one logs garbage
other than [ff]'s while waiting for the [00]

Both modems can send faxes ok BTW.

Perhaps interesting is the fact that the tty ports being used are
locked in turbo mode, so one has to ask for 2400 to get 19200 which
may be screwing with buffering in the kernel.   Mind you, our PPP link
runs on such a port with no apparent grief.  I'll try plugging the
modem into a normal tty port tonight.

I'm hunting around for other modems to try but would like to hear
if anyone (esp anyone in Australia) has this working.
