Bug Description

 I get this message when trying to send a fax:- "efax-0.9a:15:38:: 54 Error: tcgetattr on fd=7 failed: Input/output error"

It seems to me that there is no communication to the modem and I do not know how to fix it. Any help perhaps.
Thank you.

Silly me. In Efax-gtk, Click File-Settings menu entry. Then set Serial Device (in Modem tab) to ttyACM0. Then works fine.
