Re: [hylafax-users] Trying to use Hylafax on Ubuntu Desktop 10.04

[Ricardo Tutume <hylafax@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Yes, I did... but now I'm thinking that the driver wasn't loaded... I'm trying in 2 different machines.. one has a Conexant chipset and another one has PCTel... both appear to be a WinFAX and I will need a driver to it work, is that right?

Well, I'm trying now to find the source, compile and make another test. As soon as I have the solution I will put the solution here.

or if someone has the solution, please, put it here.

Thanks

Ricardo

I am just guessing here, but have you added your modem to Hylafax by running faxaddmodem?

http://www.hylafax.org/content/Handbook:Basic_Server_Configuration:Faxaddmodem

Ubuntu knows about your modem as shown in dmesg,
See if the appropriate hylafax processes are running by: ps lax and check for: faxq, hfaxd -i 4559, and faxgetty

Hi,

I'm new with HylaFAX and almoust new on Ubuntu with FAX. I tried eFAX, but it didn't work too...

Well, I really want to use HylaFAX under ClearOS (I'm new in both) but there I was having many problems. Then I though that would be easier test the FAX card with Ubuntu, than try with other distribution.

With Ubuntu, I don't get any error by now. The fax just don't work.

With lspci I get

03:01.0 Communication controller: Conexant Systems, Inc. HSF 56k Data/Fax Modem

and dmesg | grep tty

Look like everything is ok for me. Is that right?

I'm making just a test with sendfax -d -n 999999 file.pdf

It show me

request id is 1 (group id 1) for host localhost (1 file)

then if I do faxstat -s

But nothing happens. Could someone give some help on this, please?

Thanks
