Re: [hylafax-users] Modem not dropping DTR
There has to be a better way, right now I have put into the "wedged" script
a line that does "stty -F ${device} ospeed 0" then I kill the faxgetty,
this will cause DTR to drop and the modem to handug and reset, init will
then restart faxgetty.
This is obviously a band-aid and hides the real problem.
How can I fix this problem correctly?
