Release Notes ( version:0.70 compiled:21.Mar 1995 )
Pre-Release :
This software is in an not extensively tested state. Don't be bugged by bugs, cause you just mail me your problems and I try to figure out how to change the code to support your kind of Class2 Faxmodem as well.
I've heard that this driver runs with Rockwell chipsets, I just tested it an afternoon with a noname modem.
I don't have a plain Class2 modem so mail me when some things just won't work.
General
Speakervolume and ~dialonly options are not supported.
If you need to dial a specific prefix you can set that as root :
localhost#: dwrite JollysFax dialPrefix 01149
then 01149 will get dialed in front of every number.
ToDo
First thing on my priority list right now ( after releasing ZyXEL,Class2 and Class2.0 versions ) is to support fax receiving. It's not a big deal, but I want to run my am as answering machine still; so I have to rewrite a whole bunch of things ( like messaging from am to the faxdriver and vice versa ).
Or maybe I just hack the fax receiving without am support cause Mecca ( oh' let's knee down eastwards ) will probably have a different fax-api.
