Hi,
Just installed Chirp on Ubuntu 14.04 and can't get it to read anything from the radio.
I have confirmed the cable works, both the RS-92 software and the Windows version of Chirp running in Wine can talk to the radio 100%.
The USB to Serial cable is a genuine chip, not one of the fakes and works in Windows and Linux just not with the Ubuntu version of Chirp. It has also been used with the Icom Android app on a tablet and phone.
All lines have Error in the Name field and no data is shown from the radio in any cell. Also, there doesn't appear to be any communication with the radio as the light on the adaptor doesn't light at any time. It lights when RS-92 is talking to the radio and when the Windows version of Chirp is talking to the radio.
The com port is /dev/ttyUSB0, working with the other software but not with Chirp Ubuntu.
If it's any help this is what repeats many times in the log file: Exception running RadioJob: 'NoneType' object has no attribute '__getitem__' -- Exception: -- Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/chirpui/common.py", line 111, in _execute result = func(*self.args, **self.kwargs) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/chirp/ic9x_icf.py", line 63, in get_memory return ic9x_icf_ll.get_memory(self._mmap, number) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/chirp/ic9x_icf_ll.py", line 123, in get_memory mmap = get_raw_memory(_mmap, number) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/chirp/ic9x_icf_ll.py", line 47, in get_raw_memory return MemoryMap(mmap[offset:offset+size]) TypeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute '__getitem__' ------ Job Args: (25,) Job KWArgs: {} Job Called from: File "/usr/bin/chirpw", line 154, in <module> gtk.main() File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/chirpui/memedit.py", line 1175, in <lambda> refresh.connect("clicked", lambda x: self.prefill()) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/chirpui/memedit.py", line 1036, in prefill job = common.RadioJob(handler, "get_memory", i)
