Problems with Hylafax...



Hello,

I'm trying to install the hylafax software on my PC linux RH6.2 box and
i need your help.

I downloaded and installed hylafax-4.1beta1-1rh6.i386.rpm
I ran faxsetup and faxaddmodem and all was OK.
When i try to send an outgoing fax, the fax is spooled but never send.

Here is a transcript of my session :

[balestra@fax balestra]$ faxstat -s
HylaFAX scheduler on fax.i3s.unice.fr: Running
Modem ttyS2 (+33 4 92942898): Running and idle
[balestra@fax balestra]$ sendfax -s a4 -n -D -d 92942781 pb.ps 
request id is 1 (group id 1) for host localhost (1 file)

[balestra@fax balestra]$ faxstat -s
HylaFAX scheduler on fax.i3s.unice.fr: Running

The faxq process take all the CPU but do nothing (?)


Here are the reports made by syslog (with max of tracing ?):

[root@fax /root]#

The conversion is effectively done. the file
/var/spool/fax/docq/doc1.ps;01
exist and is not empty, but is never sent on the modem.


I read the docs and faqs, but don't understand this behavior.


Can you help me ?

PS: The modem is OK. It works with the "mgetty+sendfax" package.
PS2: As said in the doc, i have removed the mgetty* packages before
     installing hylafax.
