RE: Sportster Voice (Re: PPP problems)
Remco,
I have successfully used vgetty and mgetty to do fax, voice, and DTMF
recognition on my non-Debian gateway. Unfortunately, I had to hand-patch the
code a little to get the handset features working with my Sportster 33.6 F/V. I
doubt those fixes have made it into the Debian packages, and if that is the
case, you will have to hand compile it.
If you are still interested, email me and I can send you my scripts, and where
I patched the code (I snarked it off of the mgetty newsgroups a few months
back).
Pax,
Jonathan
