Re: Receiving garbage
More details and weirdness:
the faxes come in garbled - as if the flow control is not working.
Basically, there is a random collection of dots on a thin strip.
I have tried to date:
receiving with two different faxes, one a Hayes Accura 56K modem and the
other a Xerox Workcenter 250. The Xerox is usually the bulletproof fax
of choice. The Xerox receives faxes fine either to paper or to Zetafax
(an NT-based fax server that I am trying to replace).
I have looked at the faxes with both the Wang viewer for NT, as well as
Iview. Both appear the same. I tried printing a fax ( tiff2ps | lpr)
and got a blank page.
I tried sending with two different faxes, one an old HP all-in-one deal
(330?) and one a new HP all-in-one.
OK, so I figured maybe it's a problem with the digi board, so I
connected the Xerox to ttyS1. Ran faxaddmodem and it was not able to
communicate with the modem. So I ran minicom; I could communicate
fine. Ran faxaddmodem again; no dice. fuser says no one is using
/dev/ttyS1.
I am stumped.
My setup:
RH 6.0, 2.2.13 kernel
hylafax-4.0pl2-3rh5.rpm
Digi 4 port Xe
Hayes Accura 56 K modem
Xerox 250 modem
Server hardware:
p5/166 SMP box
96 MB Ram
