I'd do this.

As root (or under sudo su) install mlocate.

Then update database by this command (continuing as root).

updatedb

Then find "chirpw".

locate chirpw

Find the location, then list the file with -l so you can get the owner and group.

ls -l ./(full path to chirpw)

Then see if you're a member of the group chirp belongs to.

You're probably not (thus you cannot use the chirpw file as user) so just add yourself to that group using the root account.

Best wishes,

I am running chirp-next the june 3rd version on ubuntu 22.04. I am a member of the dialout group. I cannot connect to my FT-65 unless I run chirp with sudo, so I have some type of permissions issue.

Is there another group I need to add myself to?

Thanks
