I've been trying to set up faxing under 10.0. I've added a modem using hylafax's modemadd, specifying ttyS4 as the correct modem device. I did a test run using jhylafax and it connected to my cell phone properly. After a system reboot neither jhylafax not susefax (which errors in java) can find the modem. KDEPrintFax errors with: Sending to fax using: /usr/bin/capisuitefax -d '***1928' '/opt/fax/Mike/fax' can't write to queue dir (Note first three digits of phone are grunged be me for this message.) /opt/fax/Mike has attributes of 777 as does the intended fax file /opt/fax/Mike/fax. Also is there a way once I get this sorted out to just print to teh fax-modem using cups? Mike

I can't help with the modem problem, but to print to the faxmodem under linux, look at kdeprintfax (or google - there are several other alternatives). Under windows, WHFC is pretty good Mike- -- If you're not confused, you're not trying hard enough. -- Please note - Due to the intense volume of spam, we have installed site-wide spam filters at catherders.com.

Daemon is running (levels 3 and 5) but not modem action. jhylafax is still not doing anything, susefax is not working, and kdeprintfax gives the same error as reported above.

Try commenting out the modem's line there and running with just the fax. Haven't checked the documentation lately and its been awhile since I set this up so I don't remember if this is an either/or situation. Modem or fax but not both. I know that if just the fax getty is running it will work. Stan

I understand you may have both devices running, but only one handler. Ie, use a getty that diferentiates when the incoming call is a modem or a fax and that calls the appropiate program to handle it.

I'll comment out the modem getty. However I'm not aware of how this will allow me to fax as a client when the clients still report failure, even though my cell phone records a connection. :(

Most of the ttyS? and ttys? are root:tty owned, the ones that are root:uucp are all ttyS?. ttyS4 is the only one with owner and group uucp.
The "uppercase" devices (major 4) are serial ports: 4 char TTY devices 0 = /dev/tty0 Current virtual console 1 = /dev/tty1 First virtual console ... 63 = /dev/tty63 63rd virtual console 64 = /dev/ttyS0 First UART serial port ... 255 = /dev/ttyS191 192nd UART serial port But the lower case ttys I don't know. The major is 3... ah, they are PTY slaves, ie, pseudo-TTY slaves: 3 char Pseudo-TTY slaves 0 = /dev/ttyp0 First PTY slave 1 = /dev/ttyp1 Second PTY slave ... 255 = /dev/ttyef 256th PTY slave These are the old-style (BSD) PTY devices; Unix98 devices are on major 136 and above. As for the ownership diference you mention, faxgetty changes it. Try to modify the owner or permissions, you will see how it changes back within the minute. I don't know about mgetty, though. - -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.0 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Made with pgp4pine 1.76 iD8DBQFEQly+tTMYHG2NR9URAs42AKCMw6TUET9VfY7/l8VbWXsEO59VkQCcDHn5 21+FChMgfsxhzbxwxCuN+VQ= =9zFv -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

This is the real problem. No carrier. The fax-modem could not establish a sucessfull connection to the other side. Notice there is about one minute delay between the dialing and this error, so I can assume the call got through to your celular, but the fax negotiation failed. If you tel hylafax to keep the speaker on till connected, you might confirm this. I can guess by the noise if things are going well or not.

No, it is accessing correctly. It is kdeprintfax who gives the wrong error message. The log shows it. Or the error is another one: after the first try fails, the fax should be queued so that hylafax retries later on its own.

At this point, we know that it dialled. I assume it was you who removed the phone number, so not to post it here; good, but check that the number is correct. Hylafax can add prefixes on tis own.
Yes I blanked the number. Makes sense when this will be going into a web wide search-able archive. From the phone book, I have a seven digit number in Kdeprintfax, the phone book from jhylafax is the ten digit number.
Apr 16 09:29:34.13: [ 6813]: --> [10:NO CARRIER]
This is the real problem. No carrier. The fax-modem could not establish a sucessfull connection to the other side. Notice there is about one minute delay between the dialing and this error, so I can assume the call got through to your celular, but the fax negotiation failed.
If you tel hylafax to keep the speaker on till connected, you might confirm this. I can guess by the noise if things are going well or not.
I hear the speaker in jhylafax, but not in kdeprintfax. This is from /var/spool/fax/etc/config.ttyS4 SpeakerVolume: on ..... # Set modem speaker volume commands: OFF QUIET LOW MEDIUM HIGH. # Note that we both turn the speaker on/off and set volume. # ModemSetVolumeCmd: "ATM0 ATM1 ATM1 ATM1 ATM1" This is from the stock USR56k config file provided with hylafax. I copied it over to the etc directory and edited in the changes from the hylafax setup utility, the original is backed up.

Ok; I have compared it with failed a session of mine, and it gives the same messages.

It cannot access the modem for some reason, while jhylafax does, and did with modem mgetty not commented out.
No, it is accessing correctly. It is kdeprintfax who gives the wrong error message. The log shows it. Or the error is another one: after the first try fails, the fax should be queued so that hylafax retries later on its own. Do you have the hylafax daemon running?
I think the log files are being generated from jhylafax and not from kdeprintfax. I open konq in the log file directory and tried running kdeprintfax, there was not new log from the failed attempt. I waited several minutes and then ran jhylafax and it produced a new log file. given the difference in phone numbers, 10 for jhylafax and 7 for kdeprintfax, I'm fairly sure that the logs are from jhylafax, and kdeprintfax isn't getting far enough to create an eror log file in the /var/spool/fax/log directory.

Not good. Then, you have a problem with "kdeprintfax", not hylafax. Try faxing directly with "sendfax"; for instance, from the configuration I have in OpenOffice: sendfax -m -n -T 3 -s a4 -D -d "(PHONE)" "(TMP)" from "man sendfax" (different from "info sendfax"): SYNOPSIS sendfax [ options ] [ files... ] DESCRIPTION sendfax submits one or more facsimile transmission requests to a HylaFAX facsimile server. Requests are normally processed immedi ately, although they may also be queued for transmission at a later time using a syntax identical to the at(1) command. ... sendfax passes POSTSCRIPT® and TIFF documents directly through to the fax server for transmission, and attempts to convert other file formats to either POSTSCRIPT or TIFF. In normal operation sendfax automatically converts ASCII-text, troff(1) output, Portable Document Format (PDF), and Silicon Graphics format images for transmission. Support for other file formats can be easily added through an extensible file typing and conversion facility; see typerules(5F). Note that since TIFF Class F documents are processed directly it is simple to forward a received facsimile. If this works, then check what kdeprintfax is using to send faxes. Mine (which I've never used, so it contains the defaults) says it uses: /usr/bin/sendfax -n %server_h %res %time_a %enterprise_x %comment_c %email_f -d %name_{@@@}%number %files which is the same command. I wonder if the syntax is entirely correct, I dont see many command switches above. - -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.0 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Made with pgp4pine 1.76 iD8DBQFEQ6RLtTMYHG2NR9URArkHAKCNss6zfPD9jSMjUr+KjjoObgLYhgCffx2s sduUzFL+OE7xqipKE6ft1QM= =Nxs4 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

Our phone company has decided to phase in the 10 digit dialing for all numbers including local.

If this works, then check what kdeprintfax is using to send faxes. Mine (which I've never used, so it contains the defaults) says it uses:
/usr/bin/sendfax -n %server_h %res %time_a %enterprise_x %comment_c %email_f -d %name_{@@@}%number %files
which is the same command. I wonder if the syntax is entirely correct, I dont see many command switches above.
The fax system specified is hylafax, the default command line is: /usr/bin/capisuitefax -d %number %files IIRC capisuitefax was installed when I went into YaST to set up the fax. I want to note that I'm using kde 3.5.2. I do appreciate the help Carlos. I know I'm getting some where.

_____________ End of log file. I faxed four pages, and then went and picked them up. I think my modem config file needs a bit of tweakling in the ident section, and I noticed this line above: May 21 10:00:08.95: [10019]: USE A4 page width (215 mm) I'd prefer a normal letter size, and I'm wondering if this is teh result of t4eh negotiation with the fax reciever?: May 21 10:00:08.94: [10019]: REMOTE max A4 page width (215 mm) I ended up faxing right out of OpenOffice which I didn't really want to do, but couldn't seem to find a simple print to file as postscript. I'll probably want to be able to fax unmodified copies of this at various times so I'm figuring it would be easier to just fire up either kdeprintfax or jhylafax and send that way. Mike

Funny. It should have been "no answer", or something of the sort; those error depend on the modem, though. No... I'm thinking... the cellular company might have given a voice message to your modem, so the "no carrier". Correct, then.
The fax system specified is hylafax, the default command line is: /usr/bin/capisuitefax -d %number %files
I thought capisuite was used for ISDN :-? [...] Yes, it is: : Summary : ISDN telecommunication suite providing fax and voice services : Description : : CapiSuite is an ISDN telecommunication suite providing easy to use : telecommunication functions which can be controlled from Python : scripts. Therefore, it will not work for you unless you have ISDN services and an appropiate card.
IIRC capisuitefax was installed when I went into YaST to set up the fax. I want to note that I'm using kde 3.5.2.
I do appreciate the help Carlos. I know I'm getting some where.

Voice mail capable cell phone, so the company takes a message when the phone doesn't get answered.

I think YaST needs a bit of a going over then. ISDN cards are a separate module, and I just checked to make sure nothing was set up, and it comes up blank. The one other thing that the modem is capable of is voice, which I'll wait on. I think that's more of a server function, and this modem is on my main system.
IIRC capisuitefax was installed when I went into YaST to set up the fax. I want to note that I'm using kde 3.5.2.
Checking just now it seems that the phone answering module will install capisuite. :(

Welcome; it is an interesting problem.
:) I hope to get this written down and posted so others will have an easier time of it than I have had. Googleing this subject I ran across an old question from Carl Spitzer, which may end up getting answered in course. Mike
