1. I understand you can now buy a USB digital tv receiver stick that
is supported by Linux.
I'm looking for one that is supported in Ubuntu 11.04 and can be
bought easily by specifing the exact store or item (I need to send a
non technical person to do it) or ordered by phone or via eBay.
2. Has anyone found a FAX modem that is compatible with NGN? I had
several old ones which either were no longer supported (PCI modems)
and external ones that were not compatible with NGN. When I plugged
them into the phone line (after the appropriate filter) they always
thought they heard a carrier. I assume it was because the filtering
inside the modem was inadequate.
I know you can get one, I have an HP multifunction unit, which lives
on a Windows computer. Now I have to print out pages I want to fax and
carry them over. I can print out on the printer part using samba, but
can't fax.
For shalom bayit, it's going to stay on the Windows computer, but I
miss hylafax. A USB or RS-232 modem supported by Hylafax is exactly
what I need. Or a service that I can pay per page to send faxes via
hylafax. This needs to be an Israeli service, I don't need to send
faxes outside the country.
Or absent any of those an Israeli voip provider I can use to send
faxes via asterisk. E.g. one that provides ulaw or alaw outgoing
connections.
Any information would be appreciated, even if it is a negative.
Geoff.
