[Bug 376711] New: hylafax service init script doesn't start any modems
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=376711 Summary: hylafax service init script doesn't start any modems Product: openSUSE 11.0 Version: Alpha 3 Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Network AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: volker3204@paradise.net.nz QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- Setting up a desktop computer with hylafax to send/receive faxes involves: 1) Running faxsetup once. This is difficult to automate further. 2) Uncommenting the faxgetty line in inittab. 3) Hacking /etc/init.d/hylafax so that it calls faxaddmodem for the modem(s) configured in 1), so faxes can actually be sent. I attach a patch which fixes the problem in a suse-conform way. hylafax-4.4.0-80 hylafax-client-4.4.0-80 -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Service script doesn't start any fax modems so sending faxes isn't possible. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Modems are configured for use with HylaFAX with the faxaddmodem(8C) command." "Do you want to run faxaddmodem to configure a modem [yes]?" This will create a /var/spool/fax/etc/config.<modem> file which is read by faxgetty to init the modem at starttime. The only thing which is currently not supported by the init rc file, is to use a modem for send-only (without running faxgetty) , this would need a call to faxmodem in the init rc file. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
