Hello,

I'm trying to recieve faxes using an external SupraFAXModem 28.8
(upgraded to 33.6) and mgetty+sendfax.  I used to be able to do that
but the configs were lost ages ago.

What happens is that mgetty realizes that there is an incoming fax,
but somehow it can't read it.  It seems like mgetty timesout after a
while.

Here is /etc/mgetty/mgetty.config (sans the comments):
----------------------------------------------------------------------
fax-id +972-3-510-5399

speed 38400

port-owner uucp
port-group dialout
port-mode 0664

fax-owner amos
fax-group uucp
fax-mode 0640

port ttyS1
  debug 5
  fax-only y
  modem-type c2.0
----------------------------------------------------------------------

And here is a sample log of an attempt (debug level 5):

The installed packages are mgetty and mgetty-fax version 1.1.8-1.

Any help would be appreciated.
