See the documentation for hylafax, and Google for setting it up. There is a lot of good info on the web, and a discussion on this list earlier about faxing from 10.0. Also if there's a problem you can get excellent help here.
After updating the pctel drivers I actually managed to send one test fax. Then I started encountering a persistent problem: "modem busy" messages. Using minicom I could still send test sequences to the PCTel modem, but I could not send any more faxes. And now I can't even get that far: I get the message from sendfax (the one that works with Hylafax):
Can not reach server at host "localhost", port 4559.
I get that even when running as root.
I don't recall exactly where to find this, but you need to make sure that you have either modemgetty or faxgetty running. I believe that was my problem as well. The thread is "Faxing from 10.0" and starts April 06,2006. Mike
