Description fanisatt 2009-06-22 09:22:24 UTC

Version:           1.0 (using 3.5.10-11.fc11 Fedora, Fedora release 10.92 (Rawhide))
Compiler:          Target: x86_64-redhat-linux
OS:                Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.29.5-191.fc11.x86_64

If I login as a normal user I can't send a fax with kdeprintfax. I use it inside KWord. The program reports an error and my fax modem does nothing at all. 
There is no problem if I login as the root !!

That's the log file of kdeprintfax after the error report :
