you need to add yourself to the group that manages the com port. the fastest way I have found is to edit the groups file directly and append your username to the proper group. save it and you are on your way.

I recently installed the latest daily build on Ubuntu 12.04. I am connecting to a Kenwood TH6A using a FTDI cable. My problem is that I am denied access to the port unless I run Chirp from the terminal as root.
Is there a solution to this issue?
