Re: A4Skyhawk, USA, Ubuntu 10.04, kernel 2.6.32-25 --- efax-gtk v3.2.3-2 doesn't work

Marvin:
     Yes, I did sudo modprobe agrserial.
     I started over, did a complete removal of
agrsm06pci-2.1.80_20100106_i386.deb and associated files, reinstalled the
latest version dated 20100106, and efax-gtk 3.2.3 works fine.  Then I
removed everything again and tried to duplicate the gripe in the OP, to see
what steps I had messed up, and I couldn't do it.  So I don't know what it
was that caused the problem.
     But everything is working fine now.  Thanks for your help.  
     
Bill
