Hi Robert,
You might want to check to make sure your user has proper permissions.
In linux, typically the groups you might need for this kind of operation include `dialout`, `usb`, and while you're at it you might as well include `plugdev`.
The command to add your user to a group might be `sudo gpasswd -a <user> group`.
Once thats finished you might need to refresh your profile. Either try opening CHIRP in a new terminal, or log out and log back in. ------------------------------------------- Matthew Poletiek 303.810.9082 matthew.poletiek@gmail.com www.matthewpoletiek.com

Nigel,
Here is some more info, I think this is saying it is attached to /dev/ttyUSB0, but same issue.
rabbit@ganymede:/dev$ dmesg | grep tty [ 0.108543] printk: console [tty0] enabled [ 0.396294] 00:05: ttyS0 at I/O 0x3f8 (irq = 4, base_baud = 115200) is a 16550A [ 0.418318] 0000:00:16.3: ttyS4 at I/O 0xf0e0 (irq = 19, base_baud = 115200) is a 16550A [ 9667.132474] usb 1-1.1.3: FTDI USB Serial Device converter now attached to ttyUSB0 [10669.642560] ftdi_sio ttyUSB0: FTDI USB Serial Device converter now disconnected from ttyUSB0 [10670.495576] usb 1-1.1.3: FTDI USB Serial Device converter now attached to ttyUSB0

Usually /dev/ttyUSB0 unless you already have another serial device already plugged in to a USB port.
Go to file manager and look in /dev/ and see what appears and disappears when you plun in and unplug the cable.

Hello,
Total noob, here. Taking my exams on Thursday. Got my TIDRADIO UV-5R and the FTDI cable. How can I detect which /dev/tty is being used for the FTDI connection to my radio? I tried /dev/ttyS0 and /dev/ttyUSB0 which resulted in the error 'Radio did not respond'.
Kindly,
Robert
