It will pass FM, but not TO, if I remember this correct.  But that's
not the major problem - the major issue is that the ISDN cards cannot
do fax right now under Linux.  Not at all.

So you need something like the ZyXEL 2864I or the ELSA MicroLink
TL/V.34, or the USR Courier I-Modem - but the latter won't passed the
called MSN, so the list of modems that can be used is really short.
