everything looks fine as far here

but there does not appear any symlink or device, efax cant find anything.

by the way, i just need the modem for sending and receiving faxes.
the diagnosis tool says about the modem
Predictive diagnostics for card in bus 00:0e.0:

Get the pctel-0.9.7-9-rht-10.tar.gz
Unpack under Linux with:
tar zxf pctel*.tar.gz
and read instuctions therein.
Read DOCs/Pctel.txt and Modem/DOCs/YourSystem.txt for follow through guidance.
Writing DOCs/Pctel.txt
Completed candidate modem analyses.
The base of the UDEV device file system is: /dev/.udev
is there already any expierience in using this modem with this os?
best regards,
chris
