When I check in terminal mode, I can not see a problem there . When I dir''d the files being sent, I find the files do exist in the directory /home/fff/Documents.

fff@fff-EX310AA-ABA-SR1910NX-NA630 ~ $ dir /home/fff/Documents
2011-05-09
27189-A.pdf
3300\ code.pdf

I even took the file and put it on the desktop and then then ran send fax and it gave me same error. I also reinstalled the efax-gtk program but still got the above errors. What could be the cause and how it can be corrected? need help/support.

update to my post--
I also get "can not open serial port error along with lthe failed page error. My modem is a usb us robotics. I have used this modem to connect to ISP and it works fine. When I run code "sudo wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf" it shows:

Found an USB modem on /dev/ttyACM0.
Modem configuration written to /etc/wvdial.conf.
ttyACM0<Info>: Speed 460800; init "ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0"

Which authenticates the modem is configured and works. However I only want to send faxes via efax or just dial out and no longer need to connect with ISP. Waiting for a reply for this Efax-gtk issue and thanks.

Yes I did check out that thread re: modem. But it did not apply to my problem, since my modem is a usb external one. Also, you will note from my thread, my modem was found and works. I also would like to bump-up my post but do not know how, since bump-up was not listed/available on this post. If you would point me to a experience modem/software person (not a newbe) that can help with this application, I would appreciate it. I only address the newbe level to detemine why no one is replying to my post. The install/boot post has been fixed by me already, an resolved as I mentioned. Thanks
