Hi,

does anybody use mgetty to receive fax? I successfully installed mgetty
from the package system (works really great!) and mgetty seems to work
correctly. The only problem is that nearly every fax is aborted due to
timeouts. The modem is listed in docs/modems.db as working under Linux.
I even implemented the proposed patch with no success.

I use a selfmade cable:

HSKi  2 ----------------------  5 CTS
TxD-  3 ----------------------  2 TxD
GND   4 ----------------------  7 SG
RxD-  5 ----------------------  3 RxD
GPi   7 ----------------------  8 DCD
HsKo  1 ------------------+--- 20 DTR
GND   4 ---+              !
           !              !
RxD+  8 ---+              +---  4 RTS

I used this cable with success to connect to my internet provider (only
problem: silo overflows with high speeds).

Kernel version is 1.3.2, entry in /etc/ttys:

	tty01 "/usr/local/sbin/mgetty tty01" vt100 on insecure

Modem initialisation string (as proposed in doc/modems.db):

	AT&F0S0=0M0L3\Q3\J1

Here are the messages of the initialisation from /var/log/mgetty.tt01:
