Hello,
	I can't get HylaFax to respond to the receiving modem.  I'm a single
user on a laptop using a LinkSys 10/100 + 56k combo PCMCIA card with SuSE 6.2
installed.  I'm in Russia where pulse dialing is still used.

	Pre-prep work:  I uninstalled HylaFax, deleted my FIFO files and config
files.  Then installed HylaFax 4.1 beta 2 using a SuSE rpm.  Ran
faxsetup, and faxaddmodem.  During setup, was asked if I should configure
faxmodem for each modem.  I said yes.  Did some minor editing as necessary in
config files.  Made sure that FaxGetty line was in /etc/inittab and that
HylaFax was set to startup upon boot.  Rooboted.   Yeah yeah I know, HylaFax
was compiled in RedHat.

I did the command:
sendfax -n -d 956-9878 /tmp/trash.ps  

	Problem remains:  Modem dials fine.  Other side answers. 
Receiving fax chirps away.  HylaFax immediately quits as soon as the other fax
answers, posting the message "No answer from remote" in /var/log/message file.
 I sit listening to the receiving fax while staring at this message using the
"tail -f" command.  Yes I've read documentation and FAQ.  Here is the results
from my /var/log/messages with my ***comments inserted*****.  I put info
concerning my settings below all this.  Please take a look.

Jan 10 10:33:23 george FaxGetty[185]: ANSWER: Can not lock modem device
	******* Is the lock message a problem?  My understanding is that
FaxGetty would like to lock other processes out, and can do this if I set
device to /dev/modem , but is not able to do this if I set it direct to the
serial port.  Thus it's up to me, the user, to make sure that something does
not try to access that port during faxing.  Am I mistaken? *****

	***  Bull.  After I hear my modem dial 7 times, I pick up the receiver
to listen in.  The other side answers with the sound of a chirping fax.  I
immediately see this line (tail -f ...) and that's it.  HylaFax does this every
time as soon as the receiving fax machine answers.  I try various numbers. 
Same thing.  I know that Americans bring faxes over here which work no
problem.  What controls this HylaFax to modem interaction?  The dialrules file
or the config.device file? ***
