[hylafax-users] Hylafax and HSF Modem setup

[JC van der Walt <jc@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi All,
I'm tring to install Hylafax and I'm having some issues with respect to 
the modem setup or linuxant driver.
I identified my Conexant modem to be a HSF modem because it has one chip 
with CX11252-15 printed on it. This was verified by running the 
scanModem script.  I modified my FC4 kernel by installing 
kernel-2.6.11-1.1369_FC4.stk16.i686.rpm from linuxant as per their 
docs.  I then installed the drivers by using their cnxinstall.run 
script.  Finally I compiled hylafax-4.2.2 by doing configure, make, and 
make install as usual.

As a sanity check I checked that the drivers installed:
-------------- snippet: lsmod ---------------------
hsfpcibasic2           60432  0
hsfserial              24484  1 hsfpcibasic2
hsfengine            1303700  1 hsfserial
hsfosspec             113892  4 hsfpcibasic2,hsfserial,hsfengine
hsfsoar                57856  1 hsfpcibasic2
--------------//snippet ----------------------------

Now, when I run faxsetup int Hylafax I get the following:
---- snippet: output of faxsetup ------
The result of the AT+FCLASS=? command was:

ATQ0V1E1
OK
AT+FCLASS=?
0

OK

We were unable to deduce what type of modem you have.  This means that
it did not respond as a Class 1, Class 2, or Class 2.0 modem should.
----// snippet ------

And of course FaxGetty and Faxqeuer keeps messaging me:
-------------- snippet: /var/log/messages -------------------
Oct 13 11:48:07 localhost FaxGetty[6392]: Unable to setup modem on 
/dev/modem; giving up after 2 attempts
Oct 13 11:48:07 localhost FaxGetty[6392]: CLOSE /dev/modem
Oct 13 11:48:08 localhost FaxQueuer[5949]: MODEM /dev/modem appears to 
be wedged
Oct 13 11:48:08 localhost FaxQueuer[5949]: MODEM WEDGED: bin/wedged

Oct 13 11:48:08 localhost FaxGetty[6413]: OPEN /dev/modem  HylaFAX (tm) 
Version 4.2.2
Oct 13 11:48:08 localhost FaxQueuer[5949]: NOTIFY exit status: 0 (6412)
Oct 13 11:48:17 localhost FaxGetty[6413]: /dev/modem: Can not initialize 
modem.
-------------- // snippet ------------------------------------

So I figure perhaps something in the modem setup on Hylafax is not 
initializing the modem properly?
Googling for it got me to a page where I had to modify the actual 
faxaddmodem script, which in my case did not fix the issue.

Strangely enough though, at the prompt, using wvdial seems to be able to 
initilize it just fine:
------------- snippet: modem init with wvdial -----------------
% wvdial
--> WvDial: Internet dialer version 1.54.0
--> Initializing modem.
--> Sending: ATZ
OK
--> Sending: ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0
ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0
OK
--> Modem initialized.
--> Configuration does not specify a valid login name.
--> Configuration does not specify a valid password.
-------------- // snippet ------------------------------------

Does anyone know which file I have to edit to let Hylafax initialize the 
modem properly?
Any hints at all will help.

Thanks in advance!
