NXFax and 56K V.90 Modem Rockwell Chipset by Best Data Intel or Black Solution $199

Denver, CO - July 17, 1999 - Our R & D department has verified that the External Best Data 56K V.90 Modems work great with NX Fax and PPP using Openstep for Mach 4.2 on Intel and yes even black hardware, using the NX Fax compatible Rockwell chipset modem on Intel works GREAT with Openstep 4.2 and NX Fax also download the 4.2 Fax patch , solves the missing cover sheet problem , hope it helps...!

Creation Date: May 6, 1998 Keywords: OPENSTEP, cover, fax, Cover.draw Q: Under OPENSTEP 4.2 for Mach, some applications won't let me set a cover page for faxes--and a few won't let me fax at all! How can I fix this? A: There was a problem with the English language cover page shipped with OPENSTEP 4.2. All you have to do is replace the file /NextLibrary/Fax/English.lproj/Cover.draw with the version given in _NeXTanswer #2621_. You will then be able to fax normally from all applications. http://enterprise.apple.com/NeXTanswers/HTMLFiles/2621.htmld/2621.html http://enterprise.apple.com/NeXTanswers/HTMLFiles/2622.htmld/2622.html Black hardware R & D However with my Turbo cube I've noticed the old NeXTSTATION uarts sometimes are overrun during PPP graphics downloads do to overwhelming incoming data speed but I've been using it a week, seems to work fairly good 90% of the time, only a 1 system panic, I'm currently running News, Omniweb, mail and Gator. Terminal stuff is very fast, I'm still tweaking NX fax currently it dials up just need the handshake and I suspect we need a clean install to get it to work.
