Re: receiving faxes

Hi,

can you try with HylaFax instead to see if there is a difference? Please 
note that FAX support for the HCF PCI driver is experimental as 
documented at:

http://www.linuxant.com/drivers/hcf/limitations.php

You could also try to figure out if you have this problem when receiving 
  from specific FAX machines.
