Description: The mgetty-voice package contains the vgetty system, which enables mgetty and your modem to support voice capabilities. In simple terms, vgetty lets your modem act as an answering machine. How well the system will work depends upon your modem, which may or may not be able to handle this kind of implementation. Install mgetty-voice along with mgetty if you'd like to try having your modem act as an answering machine.
