Re: [hylafax-users] modem hangs, nonstop RING in logs



Lee,

Thanks for the patch, I am using the 4.1.8-1 RPM, how do I apply this patch? Also, do you think this problem is originally being caused by the V.Everything modem or the firmware? And should I be looking at using different modems for these servers, if so could you recommend any good ones.
