You seem to be indicating that it does this without any calls coming in 
or calls going out.  Is that correct?  The modems change from "Running 
and idle" without any call?

If that's the case then faxgetty is detecting some activity on the 
modem or a lockfile creation which then causes it to change status as 
you've indicated.  It will then reinitialize when it trusts that it can 
retake the modem.

Is it possible that you're running more than one faxgetty process on 
each modem at the same time?
