James, It is worth while establishing a simple dialout before expanding to the issues of fax, This list has negligible expertise with Fax, and that portion of the agrsm code is in a pre-compiled segment. from http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/ get faxing.tar.gz which has samples which worked for a Smartlink driver, using the /dev/ttySL0 Just change /dev/ttySL0 to /dev/ttySAGR to similarly. Additionally there is an efax List which might provide assistance.
