Hello; I am, like many before me, new to Hylafax and new still to Linux operation in general. I come to you with the hope of resolving my setup of Hylafax.. I have looked threw the documentation and have setup my copy of Hylafax on a Redhat Linux system (Clarkconnect as distro.. if it even is a distro, really..) using currently a Hayes Accura PCI 08-03357.




From what I see online:

 http://www.hayes.co.uk/products/products.php?prod=08-03357-72

It appears to be an "LT Winmodem" (Lucent host-based modem). Are you using the ltmodem "Linmodem" driver?

http://www.heby.de/ltmodem

It works pretty well in my experience. When that's set (ltmodem module is running) you will want to run:

faxaddmodem ttyLT0

I was hopeing to NOT purchase a USR controller based modem




Well, we don't want you to try faxing with a USR product, anyway.

(the Hayes is supposed to be controller-based, at least has onboard DSP)




It does have on-board DSP, but it is host-based. (In other terms, it's HCF and not HSF, but it's still host-based.) Still, it shouldn't be a problem unless you're going to want more modems on that server.

Alright, here's this mess again. I have gotten the LTwinmodem driver, but of course, it installs but with one hitch; the modle did not install. I tried different versions of the driver thinking I had the wrong Kernel, but to no evail. Webmin says the package is installed, but I am still getting a failure when trying faxaddmodem. Any idea on how to manually activate/install the Ltmodem module?
