Hi, thanks a lot Patrice, I updated from 4.4.4 to 6.0.2 and added 
saverawimage to my modem's config file and it works! It creates a file 
/tmp/out.fax but I can't open it. I mean the program fax2ps and fax2tiff 
don't convert it. Which program do I need to be able to view those '.fax'?

Thanks a lot,
-Davis
