two other things to check, plug the radio into said cable, turn it on # lsusb to see if it listed
and check that your linux user is added to the dialout group # groups if not add your self to that group.

Hi Paul. Linux is CASE-SENSITIVE, so /dev/ttyusb0 is different from /dev/ttyUSB0 Check the port name in Chirp and fix those pesky lowercase "usb" with uppercase "USB". Since dmesg says that the port name is /dev/ttyUSB0 and Chirp looks for /dev/ttyusb0. I wonder how it could work before.

Greetings,
*Platform:* I5 Laptop running Ubuntu 14.04. Prolific PL2303 USB to Serial programming cable.
In the past, I have been able to access the UV-5R radio's configuration.
The laptop's OS is up to date as well as the Chirp Daily Builds
*dmesg:*
[ 1900.825659] usb 3-2: new full-speed USB device number 3 using xhci_hcd
[ 1900.842467] usb 3-2: New USB device found, idVendor=067b, idProduct=2303

[ 1900.968085] usb 3-2: pl2303 converter now attached to ttyUSB0
#System sees the interface device#*Attempt to read radio's configuration:*
"Due to the fact that the manufacturer continues to release new versions of the firmware with obscure and hard-to-track changes, this driver may not work with your device. Thus far and to the best knowledge of the author, no UV-5R radios have been harmed by using CHIRP. However, proceed at your own risk!"
And then results in:
"could not open port /dev/ttyusb0: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/dev/ttyusb0"
