It sounds like when you use the modem for data, it may be left in a
weird state that the fax software cannot properly re-initialize. This
is normally handled by faxgetty monitoring the line and
re-initializing the modem after you are done with it.
Are you running faxgetty? Have you checked out my HylaFAX notes for
RedHat Linux at http://cirl.meei.harvard.edu/hylafax/, or the new
RPM binaries at ftp://ftp.tpc.int/pub/hylafax/ ?
