Very clear, thank you :)
In fact I wanted to try adding an option in mgetty, like:
"if WITH_USR=3Dyes, then patch the mgetty source"

### OT
(my USR Message Modem does not work well with voice+fax: received faxes=20
are not well scaled but if using fax only mode with mgetty, the output=20
is good; I think there's a problem when the modem is going from voice=20
mode to fax mode... by the way if anyone is using this type of modem=20
without problem with voice+fax, let me know, I won't even have to patch=20
the sources :) ).
###

I'll have alook at the porters handbook.

OK, but if I cvsup, won't my directory be erased ?

I does, thanks a lot :)
