Hi,

apologies if you received this message twice. I tried to send it few days ago,
but, apparently, it didn't make it through.

Has anyone had success in using mgetty with a Sierra SQ3465 internal
data/fax/voice modem? I am having a lot of different problems. I think I
read all the documentation I could find, and didn't come out with any
solution. Furthermore the documentation the modem came with sucks and, as I
gather, the manufacturer has gone out of business.

First, it cannot distinguish between different kind of calls. If I
set modem-type to auto, it believes that all calls are voice. If I set it
to c2.0, it believes all calls are fax.  If I set it to data, of course,
it believes all calls are data.

Well, so far not too bad, since, essentially, I don't care about fax and
voice.

The real problem is that I cannot login. Eventually I would like to
use AutoPPP, but right now I'd be happy enough if I could login "the old
way".

Well, that is not completely true: I logged in once, but could never
do it again, and I haven't changed anything since then. The log
of that one session comes later.

All other times, the program prints the login banner and then it seems to
hang up there and reads nothing from the modem. I tried using, among other
things, different lines (some are listed later on) in init-chat with
different combinations of &C# &D# (my modem seems not to understand what
&K# means) and ingore-carrier, but no success.

I am using RH Linux 5.1 with kernel 2.0.35 and the precompiled version of
mgetty that came with RH (1.1.14).

I would really appreciate if someone with more knowlege could help or point
me to the proper source of information. Please send me a copy of your reply,
as my news server seems to miss most messages to the list.

TIA,

Michele

/etc/mgetty+sendfax/login.config is completely commented out (now, it
wasn't when I loggen in succesfully, but it doesn't seem to make a
 difference).
