I am wondering if the radio is being connected correctly.  My process is:
radio off start chirp
connect cable to radio
turn on radio
connect cable to USB port
click on radio in chirp and follow instructions
Works for me with Ubuntu and a UV5RC

        I have looked the page over and I still don't seem to be getting
        it working. There is a 'cut out' image which it would be great
        if it could be enlarged (I tried and could not find out how to
        enlarge it).

        Yes I'm running Ubuntu 13.04. Everything does seem to be find
        from that end.

        And I did look at the debug.log file which is here:

        As you can see, I selected the UV-5R and it does not receive
        anything back on the read. And that I'm using the a new version
        then what Jim suggested.
