Hi Charlie, I'm no expert on this subject but seeing no one has answered your query I suggest you look at the Mgetty FAQ (URL below). In part 1.8 there is a bit of info on CLass 1 fax modems and why they are no supported. http://www.webforum.de/mgetty-faq.html Also if you want more info I suggest posting a query to mgetty@muc.de which is the support for mgetty+vgetty program. Also I suggest you look at efax. On their web site tey say it supports Class1 and class2 fax modem. Have not used this software, but maybe worth a try. http://www.cce.com/efax/ Regards, Graham Smith _______________________________________

Maybe it's not so relevant to your problem, but I used succesfully class 1 faxmodem with Hylafax on AMD K2-500 system. I didn't try on a slower one. So you may try Hylafax, it's included in SuSE. -Kastus

Their are two classes of fax modems- class 1 and class 2. Most fax modem modems should support both classes. If you have a choice use class 2 since it is less taxing on the system.
