'Learn something all time time with Linux. ;) I started to look for a decent GUI FAX application that will send FAXs via a FAX/Modem and am amazed that there's nothing to be had.....unless it's a halafax client, which I haven't loaded yet. Any ideas?
Thanks,

As mentioned by others kprinter will do it out of the box........
Here's the error when as a user from kprinter:

Now, if I'm root, here's the output:

If I run faxrunq, here's the output:

There's still a problem with the config IN the modem, but don't have a clue as to what the init. should be.

No Carrier heh... You did remember to plug the phone line into the modem???? Seriously, the fax.allow and fax.deny and just the files that contain the allow/deny scheme for who get to use the fax. I think you can use PrintManager to get the dialog for the kdeprintfax settings. But, double check that the phone is pugged in........... -- David C. Rankin, J.D., P.E.
