putting http://lists.suse.com/archives/suse-linux/1997-Aug/1454.html
through babelfish.altavista.com gets me this:

--------------------------------

A possibility is the rate of the port.

Single dump out mgetty ' policy.h ':
/ * the default speed used by mgetty - override it with " - s < speed >"
  *
  * WARNING: this is a bit tricky, since some modems insist on going to
  * 19200 bps when in fax mode. So, if fax receiving with a port speed
OF
  * something else doesn't work, try experimenting with
FAX_RECV_SWITCHBD,
  * and if that doesn't help, try DEFAULT_PORTSPEED 19200

---------------------------------

did you compile it from source? if so have a look for the portspeed...
or set it when starting mgetty with the -s switch...

this guy (http://www.linuxsa.org.au/mailing-list/2000-01/540.html) had
the same problem... maybe drop him an email and see if he ever found a
solution...

later
