Modem will not respond in Efax-gtk or in Minicom after initialization.
This modem works fine in *******, SAME machine, just switched to Ubuntu 12.04 drive by mechanical switch. I can go back and forth, always works in *******, never in Ubuntu.
Modem will attempt to answer an incoming call, but can't be sure about function since I don't have another modem to call with.
IN MINICOM :
Welcome to minicom 2.5
OPTIONS: I18n
Compiled on May 2 2011, 10:05:24.
Port /dev/ttyS4
Press CTRL-A Z for help on special keys
Nothing further will be shown, no matter what keyboard input, etc. - except it will respond to CTL-A and Z, which are not modem responses
IN EFAX-GTK :
efax-0.9a: 21:27:23 opened /dev/ttyS4
)Then try to send and wait 5 minutes - no result, so press "Stop")

Sorry, NO MODEM WAS DETECTED! Is it in use by another program? - (my caps)
Did you configure it properly with setserial?
OK, so Ubuntu finds the modem, but doesn't find it !?!?!? Which is correct ?!?
I am a member of dialout group and all others I could think of that might affect this
I'm almost ready to believe it's a kernel problem, except not by intent. I can't imagine anyone would intentionally screw that up thinking it's best for the world...
I'm NOT trying to connect to an ISP right now, I want to use it with eFax-GTK.
It worked on 12.04 before one of the later updates which included Ubuntu segments as well as others. Then it just quit...
