SuSE 6.2 Hylafax SuSEfax - Help!



Hello,
  I am looking for help or a clue as to what to do to get a fax sent from my laptop.  I am
a new convert to Linux, and have installed SuSE 6.2 on my Winbook XL .  Even have fishes
swimming around on my screen.  But I can't shoot out a fax:-(  Can someone
please help.  I am an American in Moscow, Russia, so my resources are somewhat
limited.  I installed hylafax and all the packages it needed to run, and
susefax and all the packages it needed to run as well.  I have read the manuals
and SuSE's help documents on their site.  I've searched deja, and found this
thread. I use a Linksys PCMCIA  combo card 10/100 + 56 K.  It seems to me that
I am not getting much feedback from SuSEfax, or I just don't know how to obtain
the feedback to figure out what is wrong.  I deleted the contents of the
/var/log/sendfax.log, shutdown the computer, rebooted, tried to send a fax in
KDE using SuSEFAX.  Nothing was written to the sendfax.log 	
*******I tried Poll Fax and tried Send Fax.  This is what Get Status shows:
6   127    232-9274   D
7   /usr/home/george/Off   root  232-9274  0:12

****** In "HylaFax Server State" window, I see:
HylaFAX scheduler on george.hello: Running

   I followed the directions in the SuSE 6.2 manual for the Hylafax
configuration.  
Here is some info.  I tried to find everything I could.  The
more the better I figured.

# We normally append the "@" symbol to the dial string so that
