Which side did you change? Sending or receiving? Does it happen only in
*this* combination, or for every fax that you *send* or for every fax that
you *receive*?

Please describe the problem a bit more detailed -- so far, we only know
that you have *one* setup that gives problems, and you have changed
"something" there (one side? both sides?).

The basic problem (missing rows) sounds like a bad flow control problem on
the sending side, but I'm not going to do the guesswork to narrow it down
for you -- you're on the list long enough to know how to pinpoint a
problem (then I'll happily help you fixing it).

BTW: this looks like a Cyclades card. Are you sure you have the very
latest drivers? There have been bad bugs in early driver versions.
