[hylafax-users] Hylafax problems - from scratch



Running Mandrake 8.2, kde 2.2.2, CUPS system.

After starting over from scratch with hylafax, I ran through faxmodem, 
faxaddmodem, and then started faxgetty and hylafax.  I then tried to send a 
fax again (a simple text file from within kwrite).  Nothing appears to have 
happened again.  No send, no dialtone (I have the speaker set on), nothing.  
In /var/log/messages is:

Aug 13 12:28:43 lapdog FaxGetty[2755]: OPEN /dev/modem

6.00 LT V.90 Data+Fax Modem Version 6.00/

Kdeprintfax (started when I "Send to fax" when printing) produces this log:

Sending to fax using: /usr/bin/sendfax -h 'localhost'  -d 'Fax 
Recipient'@'5551212' -x 'school' -c 'test fax message' -f 'praedor' 
/home/praedor/.kde/tmp-lapdog.ravenhome.net/kdeprint_4d2MPRw

/bin/bash: -c: line 1: unexpected EOF while looking for matching `''
/bin/bash: -c: line 2: syntax error: unexpected end of file

My printer is stalled out and I have to kill the printjob manually.  Why is 
it that they system "can not lock modem device"?  Does it really need to?  Is 
there a way to jig around this?  I want/need to send a fax regardless of 
whether the system wants to lock the modem.
