    Hey flexfax:
    
    I previously had Hylafax working just fine on an Indy running Irix 5.3
    using /dev/ttyf2
    but this machine was a 100MHz R4600. My boss switched to a faster R4400
    but now our fax doesn,t work.
    
    I have installed Hylafax 4.0 on yhis new Indy running Irix 5.3 and tried
    /dev/ttyf2 and /dev/ttyd2 but niether one will connect with faxgetty or
    allow faxsend to connect. The modem is a USR class1 sportster 14400 and
    here is the ouput from hinv.

    I understand that there is an issue with USR and Irix 5.3 and attempted
    to install the replacement to patch 475, patch1268 but the portion
    patchSG0001268eoe2_sw.kdebug gives an error when installed on this
    system and the portion patchSG0001268dev.man.irix_lib requires a
    subsystem that does not exist on our Irix 5.3 R4400 R4600 OS disk.
    
    This patch was not necessary to run Hylafax with this modem on the R4600
    so perhaps thier are some issues that pertain only to the R4400 and her
    serial port control ?
    
    Anyone ??

    V.N.A.
    
    P.S. Is it possible for faxgetty to call uugetty instead of getty ?

Just define the PATH_GETTY in your config.local and re-run
./configure.
