[hylafax-users] Cannot send fax: COMREC error in transmit Phase B/got DCN {E124}

["F. G." <giacof@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I installed the HylaFAX 5.2.7 Debian package on my Centrino laptop, under Linux Kubuntu 8.04.1 with kernel 2.6.24; gcc 4.2.3 and libtiff4 3.8.2.
I use an internal alsa softmodem (Intel ICH Modem) with the snd_intel8x0m low level driver and the SmartLink Soft Modem driver: slmodemd, version 2.9.9.

Each time I try to send a (multi-page) fax, I get the error mentioned in the subject (see attached log) and the trasmission fails.

Parhaps I misconfigured the modem in file /etc/hylafax/config.ttySL0, how can I verify it?

# We can append the "@" symbol to the dial string so that

# and return result codes that distinguish between no carrier
# and no answer.  This makes it possible to avoid problems with
# repeatedly dialing a number that doesn't have a fax machine
# (kudos to Stuart Lynne for this trick.)
#
# NB: If you need to prefix phone numbers to get through a PBX,
#     put it in the ModemDialCmd; e.g. "DT9%s@".

Any help would be highly appreciated.
