[hylafax-users] Hayes Accura 56K (Conextant) misconfigured? ERR Unknown problem



Hello all,
    First post to this list, so apologies if I break any list protocol.

I nearly have HylaFax working on my machine, but I just can't get FaxSend to work with the modem properly. This is what I have:

Ubuntu 5.10 on Pentium3 system (2.6.10-12 kernel)
Hayes Accura 56K External with Fax support (Conextant chipset)
Using apt-get, I installed Hylafax client and server (ver. 4.2.1-7) and let it autoconfigure everything.


AT+FCLASS=? reports that the modem can support fax classes 1 and 1.0 (but not 2 or 2.0, etc.)

It's taken me a while, but I have nearly everything setup properly. I can queue up jobs remotely from a Windows machine. And "faxstat -s" shows that I have 2 jobs in my send queue, but both appear to be hung on an error.

Syslog gives more detail and reports something like this every few minutes:

Feb 3 12:47:42 localhost FaxGetty[30523]: LOCKWAIT
Feb 3 12:47:52 localhost FaxSend[594]: MODEM ROCKWELL RC288DPi/Hayes ACF3_V1.801G-V90 -E Z201
Feb 3 12:47:52 localhost FaxSend[594]: SEND FAX: JOB 6 DEST xxx-xxx-xxxx COMMID 000000022 DEVICE '/dev/ttyS0'
Feb 3 12:47:54 localhost FaxSend[594]: SEND FAILED: JOB 6 DEST xxx-xxx-xxxx ERR Unknown problem (check modem power)


(phone number xxx'd out to protect privacy)

Right now, the Power and TR lights are on.
When SendFax tries to dialout, the Off-Hook LED lights up as does the V34 light. Then a second later, they both go off as well as the TR light. Then the TR light comes back on a few seconds later. The power light is on the whole time (never blinks off...)


Because I can queue jobs, etc. I'm pretty certain this all means that HylaFax is running right, but for some reason isn't communicating with the modem properly. Any recommendations on how I can reconfigure my "config.ttyS0" file?

This is the one I'm currently using:

Any ideas? Thoughts? Better config files?
