Hi!
First of all I know that recieving faxes with a passive ISDN card
doesn't work in Linux.
But I have an idea, and I wonder if this is possible:
I also have a standard modem capable of recieving faxes connected to the
same line.
Wouldn't it somehow be possible to first let the ISDN card answer the
call, and then if a FAX or data call is detected, send an
"ata" to the modem, and going offline itself.
Has anybody ever tried this?
Does anyone know if it is possible?

If this works, it would be possible to recieve Voice/ISDN/fax/modem
calls on a single line.. :-)

thanx!
