Hi all! I have SuSE Linux 7.3 Pro on my computer. Now I want to be able to send faxes. I have a modem US Robotics supposed to be a hardware modem. It is already physically installed in the computer. It was working fine with windows. How can I do to make it working in linux? Which utility to use to configure it and tell linux that it is there? How to proceed? After, which software to use to send faxes? Is a good software exist for this task? Thanks a lot for your help! _________________________________________________________________ Rejoignez le plus grand service de messagerie au monde avec MSN Hotmail. http://www.hotmail.com/fr

Hi Martin-Richard, I just recently installed a US Robotics modem to a 7.3 box, I have no idea what happens behind the scene, since I did nothing but: - YaST2 - Network/Basic - Modem Configuration Your modem should be connected to both box and phone plug and 230V AC~ power (or whatever the voltage is in your place) and switched on (in short, operational ...). The rest should work automatically, YaST2 should find it itself. Give some feedback to the list if it doesn't:-) Then, of course, you also need to set up your ISP phone number, your account data and so on, but that's all under -YaST2 -Network/Basic as well. Concerning the fax issue, I ain't familiar with that, but there are some possibilities to do this AFAIK Cheers ...
