asterisk users - Jan 2006 - fax detection on TE406P

Hi all,

I am having problems detecting fax on a client site using the TE406P
(card with echo cancellation module) under 1.2 and was wondering if
anybody was having or has had similar problems?

Currently I can not get the system to detect fax for love nor money,
in zapata.conf the relevant entries are set to:
faxdetect=outgoing
and I have a fax extension in the necessary context.

I have taken another box with an identical build with a TE405P card in
and that was able to detect fax flawlessly.

has any one else experienced something similar?
any thoughts/advice?
cheers
cameron

Yes, we are aware that the VPM currently breaks FAX tone detection. For 
a temporary workaround, you can add 'vpmdtmfsupport=0' to the module 
parameters for wct4xxp and it will stop this behavior without disabling 
the echo canceler.

We are working on finding a solution for this issue, and once the driver 
is updated with a fix there will be a notice made to the lists.
