The new cable did the trip.
I have chirp now working in Ubuntu 11.10

One question - How to I make the auto repeater offset work in 220?
I turned it on in the menu and set the offset direction to negative. The transmit frequency still reads 0.000

I'll try it, but I'm not thinking it might be the cable.
I had similar issues in Windoze with other apps.
I've ordered a new cable.
