I searched around for a bit but could not find any indication what this is still used for, if anything. What I found were a couple of references of the driver no longer working about 10 years ago: https://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/Archiv/Bluetooth/BlueFritz%21/ https://www.opensuse-forum.de/thread/2776-erledigt-suse-11-2-und-bluefritz/ Is anyone using cmtp for voice or fax services? The use cases from before 2009 that I could find were usually dial-up networking, but that seems pointless now if the only way to get an ISDN connection is to have it routed over the internet. What am I missing? Arnd
