I received the MT5634ZBA-V92 yesterday, and have spent the better part of
two days trying to figure out how to get it to work with adaptive answer as
it needs to accept data calls as well as faxes.

The only thing I've found that gets data calls to work is to use
``ModemSetupAACmd: AT%A1+FAA=1'' which causes HylaFAX to hand data
connections off to getty properly.  Unfortunately fax calls then fail.  If
I leave out ModemSetupAACmd, faxes are handled properly, but data calls
fail.  I have tried various combinations of ModemAnswerCmd,
ModemAnswerDataCmd, and ModemAnswerFaxCmd with no success.

I've tried Class1RecvIdentTimer, AdaptiveAnswer, and AnswerRotary, but
these never handed data calls off to getty.

We have distinctive lines with two phone numbers coming into the fax modem
so I tried DistinctiveRings, with DRingOn and DRingOff, which would come up
with things like ``WFR: received cadence 20, 0, 0, 0, 0'', ``ANSWER: Ring
detected without successful handshake'' even though I had DistintiveRings
``D-20,F-8'' which I think should have been a data call.
