Frederic,

Before spending too much time on this you might want to search the HylaFAX or HylaFAX+ archives. You will find a lot of problems reported with software modems when used for fax.

My recommendation is that you find yourself a hardware modem based on the Venus chipset, preferably using a serial (RS232) interface if you have one on your computer.

I would like make my FAX run. But, I have trouble for install the drivers.

Here below the log from scanModem.

Hope I done as I should :-) BORDER=0>

Thanks.

The AgereSystems/LSI agrsm code supports compiling of a agrmodem +
agrserial driver pair.
There are a few different chipsets which use this driver pair, but they
use different code resources:

   But see conflict issue:
http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/bigarch/archive-nineth/msg02753.html For the 11c11040 chip with kernels 2.6.31 and later a change in a
modules loading settingmay be necessary.
   Within the file /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf  (or equivalent for
your Distro), change the phrase:
      options snd-hda-intel power_save=10
   to:
      options snd-hda-intel power_save=0
   or the agrsm drivers will not function. For Ubuntu related systems
this can be done with:
   $ sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf

Report from  Bjorn Wielens:
Please note- trying to load the modules on a OpenSuSE 11.2 system gives
an error about the module_version symbol. Using:
# modprobe --force agrmodem
# modprobe --force agrserial is necessary to load the drivers, and does not appear to cause ill
effects.


All of the above packages are dkms competent.  This means that if your
Linux distros dkms package
is previously installed, if provides for future updates matching
forthcoming kernels.
