Hello Daniel,

when Hylafax routes some jobs to faxCAPI it seems to think you have a  
device faxCAPI.

What files config.* do you have in /var/spool/hylafax/etc/?

IIRC the capi4hylafax programs have a hard coded reference to the file  
config.faxCAPI, so you should have this file. To hylafax the existence  
of a file config.faxCAPI means you have a device faxCAPI. For Hylafax  
you need dummy config files config.faxCAPI31 etc. These may be links to  
config.faxCAPI or empty files. Hylafax does not read these files, it  
only checks for existence.


I think you must either use a device named faxCAPI in your  
config.faxCAPI or tell Hylafax not to use device faxCAPI for outgoing  
jobs. (if that's possible)

For help with AVM ISDN cards you can try this list:

I think it's a German list but I've seen some messages in English as  
well.
