Seems that the grep -v '#' is to blame.
I've attached the output.
I installed linmodem + pctel 0.9.7-9-rht-9, but I'm still having
problems with the voice part of the voice modem, even tho AT+FCLASS=?
outputs 0,1,8. From what I understand, FCLASS 8 is for voice operation,
but vgetty dies out on me trying to send the voice message to the modem.
What I'm ultimately trying to do is to be able to record the phone line
when I try to call my local cable, DSL, TV, sat provider that
overcharged me, says that I'm on plan A but charges plan B and that kind
of thing. I'm tired of them saying anything to me and then not having
any proof or trace of what they told me.
Btw, how can I "talk" with the modem, I know I can echo to and cat from
it, but is there a way to open some sort of terminal with
/dev/ttyS_PCTEL0? I'm currently using screen to do that, but I'm
wondering if it's the way to go.
Also, I just felt like I'd try to help make your nice script even better.

Martin,
We don't get many Gentoo users.
If scanModem doesn't output a ModemData.txt for you, run in the folder
with scanModem
# bash -x scanModem 2>&1 | tee martin.txt
and send me the martin.txt when it completes.
This will enable easy bugfixing

PS your modem is supported.

Martin,
A bug may indeed have crept in.
I just downloaded the last version (2008_06_16) so I suggest that you run
scanModem again using that last version from http://linmodems.technion.ac.il
Also remember that you are supposed to be root when you run scanModem.

Hi,
I've tried scanModem on my Gentoo box with a crappy winmodem (got it from
an old Compaq computer just to tell you... how crappier does it get) that
lspci lists it as Modem: PCTel Inc HSP MicroModem 56 (rev 02). My problem is
that scanModem seems to stall or go into an endless loop, because it fails
to produce anything else than my configuration and scanModem version.
I'd be gratefull for any help.
Cheers,
Martin
