Hello fine people, I've been checking with the mailing list via the web archives since April. I signed up just a few days ago so I may voice my thanks for all those involved with getting the 11c11040 (Agere) chipset running with Linux. Although I have a nice broadband connection, it's satisfying to know that I have the option of connecting via dialup if needed. And of course the thrill of nearly 100% of this laptops hardware supported. Especially the modem. Not many Linux users in my group of friends can say that. :) I'm not asking for help with faxing. I know that is not what this list is about. I'm merely stating faxing does not work for me. Resulting in hard lock ups with any attempt to connect to the modem via efax or efax-gtk. In defense of the hardware, this could be a error on my part as I have limited Linux faxing experience. I haven't been able to find confirmation on this list whether or not faxing has been successful, only that it's not clear if the pre-compiled Red Flag Linux binary was built with faxing support. I did see users mentioning they will attempt to test, but no followups. So for the archives... I believe faxing is not supported at this time. :) I do have hopes that "those smarter then me", will find a way to get faxing supported for this modem in the future as that feature will prove very useful to me. I would like to add that I deviated from the instruction found in http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/ltmodem/11c11040/HOWTO-Agere-11c11040-HDA.html As my custom kernel needed matching alsa-drivers compiled for it anyway, I merely modified the alsa-driver-1.0.17/alsa-kernel/pci/hda/hda_codec.c in the alsa sources rather then the kernel sources. This saved me from having to rebuild my kernel modules (HUGE time saver). This may be useful for some users to know. I regret that I won't be useful to this list in a developer sense. It seems my niche in Linux is in software packaging. But I am willing to test whatever I can for you. Just let me know :) I'll be posting a ModemData.txt for my mother in-laws VIA modem soon. Although the laptop is a couple years old, the ModemData.txt suggests there is new data you guys will find useful? Have a great day folks, and thanks again.
