Andrew, You should use the first free unused number of /dev/ttyS<x> Philippe Vouters (Fontainebleau/France) URL: http://vouters.dyndns.org/ SIP: sip:Vouters@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Le 24/06/2012 04:13, Andrew Merczynski-Hait a écrit :
Okay, Instead of looking at the old thread I decided to first try what was suggested in these past emails. I tried the new efax settings and it seems to work. It waits at "using 537EP in class 1". Later I do get a "response "NO CARRIER" and, "Error: unable to answer call"" error, but presumably that is because no one is actually calling the computer??? With that efax result does it mean that the problem Marvin was addressing is fixed or will I still need to follow his suggestions? When I do ls /dev/ttyS* it appears that there is already a ttyS4 being used. What should I use instead? This is a private issue, but due to religious reasons I cannot use the computer on Saturday.
