Re: [hylafax-users] Missing EOL after 5 seconds (section 3.2/T.4)

[longbow <longbow@xxxxxx>]

hi lee!

i recently installed hylafax+ 5.2.2 and changed config to class 1. this 
runs only partially perfect. sometimes i got faxgetty hang. it blocks 
the phone line so no more fax can get in until i reset it. i even cannot 
this

May 15 16:52:38 area52 FaxGetty[30298]: --> [4:RING]

this normally happens 3 times (= 3 phonerings) and then i got this

May 15 16:52:47 area52 FaxGetty[30298]: ANSWER: FAX CONNECTION  DEVICE 
'/dev/ttyS0'

perhaps the getty args in /var/spool/fax/etc/config.ttyS0 are needen:

GettyArgs:              "-r -b -a -s %s %l"

is there a way i can get through this?? i cannot reproduce the fagetty 
hang so i dont know what to do...

thx in advance
wolfgang
