Re: [hylafax-users] Modem Conexant HCF 56k Data/Fax Modem (rev 08). Not able to configure it.

[Corrado e Rina <c.topi@Bradford.ac.uk>]

I solved the problem, was a problem of permission on the device file.

Can I ask you how did you configure the modem in order to run Hylafax???

I have not been able ... faxaddmodem tells me it is not able to recognize the 
class of the modem. But manually, it is a class 1!

Do yo have any hint?
