Hmmm.... Have you guys tried the March release mgetty-0.99 on ftp.leo.org?
It may do the job, but it needs some ports patches before it will
compile... I recall hearing someone say that class I voice/data/fax
modems can't differentiate between data and the others, but class II
could. But a class I can still do the fax/voice autodetect okay.
Well, if anyone gets that mgetty 0.99 March release compiled, please let
me know. Otherwise, it would still be nice to get the latest Wine (also
needs patches to compile) to work with the Win3.1 modem software that's
included.
Does anyone know anything about the Wine FAQ that says you can use dosemu
and throw Win 3.1 on top of it to get Windows emulation?
