Re: [hylafax-users] Hylafax doesn't know what modem to use

[Lothar Krauss <Lothar.Krauss@epost.de>]

Hello Martin,

AVM does _not_ use faxgetty or faxaddmodem for their HylaFAX drivers. You need
ther capi driver for Linux _and_ "capi4hylafax" from their download server.

Do _not_ start i4l. After installing the capi driver and then capi4hylafax, a
new entry is added to your /etc/inittab file:

fr:2345:once:/usr/local/bin/c2faxrecv -q "/var/spool/fax"

This is needed even if you are using a sending only environment! After rebooting
your PC -- or after executing

/usr/local/bin/c2faxrecv -q "/var/spool/fax" &

faxstat should report something like

HylaFAX scheduler on linuxgwhun.rz: Running
Modem faxCAPI (+49.xxx.xxxxxxx): Running and idle

Regards

Lothar
