I've tried both Linux and Windows versions with the same result. Seems it's stopping with an error because it's trying to read memory name data for the band edge memories which don't have memory names.

If they wrote a Linux product I would give it a try, Windows, I am done with it as much as I can.
I hope this is something that has dropped through the cracks in the rush to support all of the Chinese radios.

I do see the B channels I have programmed so it is pulling those down. But I do not see the memory banks on the B side nor do I see in the last tab labeled D-Star, the D-Star repeater data.
The legend at the bottom center of the screen shows the memory count incrementing as it reads the radio, when it stops this is what is there:
[0] Getting Bank information for memory 849
Not sure what is going on but it appears to stop there, but appears to be trying to still read.
I am thinking that since it does not finish reading the B memory side it is hung there.
Also if I go into a memory channel and change any parameters it no longer works pushes the changes to the radio. Used to be that you would change something in Chirp and you would see it pushed out to the radio.
I am wondering if since it cannot finish reading the B side memory it is hung waiting and that is why I cannot change the radio data from Chirp.

I have used it for the radio, normally just to program the frequencies I use around my area of travel. But I want to do a bit more, but I see somethings that do not square.
Taking into account that the radio has been around I guess for 10 years or more it does not talk over the RS-232 link very fast, so it does take some time for Chirp to pull in every- thing.
But after I have allowed it to do it's download from the radio, I am left with a notice at the bottom reading as follows: [0] Getting Bank information for Memory 849.
Here is the memory info taken from the manual:
The IC-92AD has 850 memory channels in the A band, 450 memory channels in the B band, and 2 call channels in each band. Memory channels in each band include 50 scan edge memory channels (25 pairs) for storage of often-used fre- quencies, respectively. And a total of 26 memory banks, A to Z, are available in each band for storing groups of frequencies, etc. Up to 100 channels can be assigned into a bank.
It appears that something it halting at memory 849, and it can proceed no further.
If I look at what is loaded into Chirp I see that the following screens are populated Memories (Band A) Banks (Band A) Memories (Band B)
These are not populated Bank Names (Band A) Banks (Band B) Bank Names (Band B) D-Star
Yet I am using both memory banks (analogue is A and D-Star is on B) I have bank names on with frequencies in them, so not sure what is going on. But it looks like Chirp is not reading past memory 849.
Also I used to be able to change channel data (freq, tone etc) and since the IC-92AD is a "live radio" I would see the changes show up in the radio immediately, now I see nothing, also if I try to use the refresh button, the screen in question goes blank.
I am running Mate 18.04. Chirp is Rev daily-20190201 The IC-92AD was why I started using Chirp, back in those times I could do anything to the radio made the Icom software for which they charge (still) and outrageous amount looked stupid. Yeah, it had a screen that showed a image of the radio and what was on the radio screen, big deal I could look at the Chirp screen that showed the channels and see EXACTLY what I wanted to see plus what was in above and below that channel.
Is the radio pretty much abandoned or is there someone who can look at this? What info can I supply to help fix this. The radio is still in very good shape even though it has traveled all over the planet and see some pretty grungy environments.
If you need more info holler and I will try to provide it.
