Try starting chirp from a terminal with the command chirpw -v and see what the errors are?
The live CHIRP CD makes things easy.
Also this cable ends the Prolific problem, but since you're using Linux that's not the problem.
Keep on trying, it's usually something easy to fix.

I have a gt3tp, and my cable would not plug in deeply enough and hence I got the same problem. So I took a razor blade to the inside corner of my cable. When I plugged in afterwards there was a distinctive snap. Worked like a charm afterwards.

Hi all, I am new to the radio stuff. I would like to search the
messages for an answer. I Bought a Baofeng GT-3TP for my own personal
radio to use on a licensed frequency that I use for volunteer work. I
am trying to program it with chirp latest nightly on Debian Linux using
the BF-F8HP like it says in the wiki but no luck, I get a radio didn't
respond error with a Prolific cable and an incorrect Model selected
error with a ftdi cable. Is there any suggestions to fix this? It does
work using the UV-5R driver but then I only have 2 power modes. My
friend bough the same Gt-3TP radio and had a UV-5R previously and he is
having the same problem.
Thanks in advance.
Jason
