using ubuntu 7.10
fax modem chipset HSFi CX11252-41
I bought this modem from ebuyer a few months ago as someone had
found drivers for it on opensuse ver 9... so i thought there was a good chance it would work in ubuntu.
So far i have tried:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DialupAndFax
installed following
sl-modem-daemon
gtk-efax
gfax (as alternative)
gnome-ppp
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DialupModemHowto
installed the scanmodem tool

installed the .deb file - all seemed ok and entered in synaptic.
The fax program is trying to use /dev/ttyS1 which is most likely a default
when my modem is on /dev/ttySHSF0.
Thus necessary to edit wvdial.conf
[Dialer Defaults]
Init1 = ATZ
Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0
Modem Type = Analog Modem
Baud = 460800
New PPPD = yes
Modem = /dev/ttySHSF0 && before ttyS1
ISDN = 0
Phone = <Target Phone Number>
;08456091350 && this is a telephone number for an isp dial-up - also failed
; Password = <Your Password>
; Username = <Your Login Name>
Tried to send a fax and have pasted the window (above "SEND FAX"
button) info in gtk-efax
Socket running on port 9900
efax-0.9a: 11:48:00 opened /dev/ttySHSF0
efax-0.9a: 11:48:02 Error: can't determine fax modem class support
efax-0.9a: 11:48:02 failed page /home/james/Desktop/JF-CV.pdf.001
efax-0.9a: 11:48:02 finished - invalid modem response
It would seem the modem can't select its class... recommends AUTO [from the choice of class 1, class2, class3]. Tried all three
CAN'T BE FAR OUT!....
Be grateful if someone could put me right. [...i know i can just buy a hardware modem but in spite of what some folks say i found i got a lot of trouble with one - but a software one was fine for almost 6 years].
thanks
