[Asterisk-Users] RxFAX generates no tiff file

[Darren Nickerson]

Steve,

The IRQ miss counter is only 45, and we've sent thousands of faxes since the
last boot. I'd like to understand the IRQ miss problem and do what we can to
remedy it, but I think that may be separate and distinct from our faxing
problems.

Faxes fail without the IRQ miss counter incrementing.

Anyway, the question I was really looking for you to tackle was 'how do I
detect the frame slips you say we all have' ;-)
