[hylafax-users] Hylafax cu problem

[Wael Sedky <sedky@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

hi

I am new to Hylafax and not a Linux expert however i was tempted with the 
features it has to offer. I installed the software and ran "faxsetup" to 
configure the software. Although I am able to dial out using wvdial using the 
modem installed at /dev/ttyS0, I am not able to dial out with cu according to 
the link 
http://www.hylafax.org/content/Handbook:Basic_Server_Configuration:Checking_your_Modem


When I run cu -l ttyS0 or cu -l /dev/ttyS0, i get a "Line in use" error. Where 
do I start? We know the modem is working and that linux sees it because of 
wvdial. Here is the info returned by wvdialconf

ttyS0<*1>: ATQ0    V1    E1    -- OK
ttyS0<*1>: ATQ0    V1    E1    Z    -- OK
ttyS0<*1>: ATQ0    V1    E1    S0=0    -- OK
ttyS0<*1>: ATQ0    V1    E1    S0=0    &C1    -- OK
ttyS0<*1>: ATQ0    V1    E1    S0=0    &C1    &D2    -- OK
ttyS0<*1>: ATQ0    V1    E1    S0=0    &C1    &D2    &FCLASS=0    -- OK
ttyS0<*1>: Modem Identifier: ATI    --    LT    V.92    1.0    MT5634ZBA-V92    
Serial Data/Fax Modem Version 1.32b
ttyS0<*1>: Speed 48000:    AT    --OK
ttyS0<*1>: Speed 9600:    AT    --OK
ttyS0<*1>: Speed 19200:    AT    --OK
ttyS0<*1>: Speed 38400:    AT    --OK
ttyS0<*1>: Speed 57600:    AT    --OK
ttyS0<*1>: Speed 115200:    AT    --OK
ttyS0<*1>: Max Speed is 115200; that should be safe.
ttyS0<*1>: ATQ0    V1    E1    S0=0    &C1    &D2    &FCLASS=0    -- OK
ttyS1...
....
....
Modem Port Scan <*1>: S2    S3    S4    S5    S6    S7
then it tries to test ttyS1 and fails (ok i think)

Environment: 
- Open suse 11.3
- KDE
- Multitech modem as you can see above.

Also how do I send a very basic fax. I just want to see if the software works 
before i dive into all those manual pages.

Any help is greatly appreciated
