I installed Hylafax on an old PC using Ubuntu 9.10 several months ago which was very successful. As I expanded the use of it I began getting Seg Faults from senders of other Fax Server software. I installed Swatch to monitor for Seg Faults and restart Hylafax to clear the modem but that began to happen very frequently and have had to re-install a fax machine for one line. I read several posts that going to Hylafax version 6.0.5 and Ubuntu 11.04 would solve the problem. It didn't. In fact, after the upgrade one of the modems (USR I think) will not initialize.

I set up another system with Ubuntu 11.4 and Hylafax 6.0.5, and purchased 2 MultiTech MT5634ZPX-PCI-V92 modems for it (because I read on posts that it was one of the preferred modems), with the hope that using modems others have used would work. I've searched for posts of similar problems but none have the solution.

The problem: Modems will not initialize.

Can someone help me with this? I'm about ready to fax machines and dump Hylafax.
