Double check your cable driver. "Genuine Baofeng" is still a prolific clone. Will need to be driver version 3.2.2.0

Subject: [chirp_users] UV-82, Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, can't connect...

Hello.  I need some help with getting my UV-82 to talk with my laptop.  I'm using Ubuntu 16.04 LTS and Chirp.

It had been working prior to the upgrade to 16.04.  Don't know what happened.

Here is the message I receive: Failed to communicate with radio: 'Serial' object has no attribute 'setTimeout'.

Here are my settings for the radio:

- Port: /dev/ttyUSB0

- Vendor: Baofeng

- Model: UV-82

I am using a genuine Baofeng USB cable.

This was working very nicely, so I am sure it is a setting someplace. 

Any help is appreciated.
