Re: compressed lines



Hi Eric,

I think you should be taking note of those errors. Particularly the
timeout. That means that the modem didn't respond at all. Either the
modem is broken, your serial is broken or something else is grabbing the
response.

First of all try changing over to /dev/ttyS0, that is what I use and
everyone else seems to think that it is a better device. You will need
to change your faxgetty line in /etc/inittab, rename the config file and
the FIFO file. Then restart your hylafax processes - you may also need
to run faxmodem ttyS0. I am concerned that there might be another
process listening on /dev/ttyS0 (possibly grabbing the handshake
characters).

You may find that when you do this you can undo some of the mods that
you made to the config file.
Then try and grab a command reference for your modem and check that the
commands you are sending are reasonable.
