[hylafax-users] Waiting for modem to come ready

["Gian van der Spuy" <GVDS@sun.ac.za>]

This theme seems to have come up repeatedly in discussions on this list, but 
I have yet to see a solution posted. So here is my scenario. If anyone can 
help me, please respond because I have read everything and tried 
everything to no avail.

Receiving faxes works perfectly until a fax is sent.
Sending faxes works every time.
After sending 1 fax, the modem is left in a busy state and incomming calls 
are ignored. Faxes can still be sent.
Respawning faxgetty resets the modem and everything works perfectly 
again until the next fax is sent.

I have installed the hylafax-4.1.2-1rh7 rpm on an AMD K6 running Redhat 
7.3. All the latest patches and updates are installed.
I am using a 3com/USR message modem which I understand is essentially 
a Sportster. Run it as class 2.0 and class 1 - no change. (I have also tried an 
oldish 56K Compaq with a Rockwell chip in class 1 with similar results.)
Faxgetty is running from inittab. (I have tried starting it before hylafax as 
someone suggested - no luck)

regards
