Ok, update.
I closed STFax down, then ran PGS from CLI. Yes! After a very long time, I
finally got {GS to run! however, as I say, it took a vERY long time and the
miggy was very, very jerky and sluggish befor eit ran. Iwas also very slow
when it finally ran - I gave up waiting for a new page to appear.
I got the appdebug.txt file, around qtr megabyte in size. Would you like me
to send that to you?

Yes, I do have a modem connected to the serial port. is there any way to
have STFax (connected to the modem in the serial port) running when i want
to run PGS?
