Still trying to get my Best Data USB (model #56USBp) controller-based modem to work with efax.
When I loaded efax, it gave:
efax: 58:40 Error: can't open serial port /dev/modem: No such file or directory.
I found this:
http://www.linux-usb.org/USB-guide/x332.html
and based on what I read there:
1. I already have the acm.o module
2. I created four nodes (as root):
/dev/usb/ttyACM0 c 166 0
/dev/usb/ttyACM1 c 166 1
/dev/usb/ttyACM2 c 166 2
/dve/usb/ttyACM3 c 166 3
Then I tried efax using the -d switch:
efax -d /dev/usb/ttyACM0
I got:
efax: 36:33 Error: can't open serial port /dev/usb/ttyACM0: Permission denied
Well, that's some progress. So I su'd to root & tried again:
efax -d /dev/usb/ttyACM0
This time the result is:

So, am I getting any closer to solving this? I have no idea what these errors mean, or what to try next. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.
