faxgetty/mgetty problems



We're having a fair problem with our general setup.  HylaFAX4.01-pl2,
mgetty-1.0.0 and faxgetty?  Netcomm Roadster II modems on Linux 2.2.9
Here is the relevant config.ttyE7 file...

GettyArgs:		"-s 115200 -x 4"
ModemType:		Class2		# use class 2 interface
ModemRate:		38400
ModemFlowControl:	rtscts		# default
#ModemResetCmds:	AT&F2		# what you want for a Supra
ModemNoFlowCmd:		AT&K		# disable flow control cmd
ModemHardFlowCmd:	AT&K3		# hardware flow control cmd
ModemSoftFlowCmd:	AT&K4		# software flow control cmd
ModemSetupDTRCmd:	AT&D3		# DTR off causes modem to reset
#ModemSetupDTRCmd:	AT&D2S25=1S38=0	# Dynalink 1414VE needs this
ModemSetupDCDCmd:	AT&C1		# DCD follows carrier
ModemSetupAACmd:	AT+FAA=1+FCLASS=0 # enable in current class
ModemSendFillOrder:	LSB2MSB		# as expected
ModemRecvFillOrder:	MSB2LSB		# opposite of what makes sense
ModemAnswerFaxBeginCmd:	"<19200><xon>"	# modem switches on fax receive
ModemDialCmd:		ATDT0%s		# escape our PABX

1 - we cannot receive faxes 
2 - mgetty works with wins clients, not linux pppd callers
3 - faxgetty is not calling mgetty properly

1 - Simply put, dialling a number results in a 
"SEND FAILED : Ring detect without successful handshake" error.  faxgetty
is installed on the incoming line and seems to distinguish between a data
and fax connection.

2 - Anyone know of the proper options pppd callers should include? ;)

3 - When I say "not calling properly" I mean faxgetty starts, recognizes
the DATA CONNECTION (according to the logs) but when I check it dialling
via windows, the popup screen is entirely black and I get disconnected
from the server.
/sbin/getty is a symbolic link to /usr/local/sbin/mgetty, and the GettyArgs 
get picked up fine in the logs.

Any help appreciated
