hi dan
the main problem s that it just wont load the gui and have found theres a error so i dont get to the stage of doing the comports etc
heres the error:
/# chirpw Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/chirpw", line 22, in <module> from chirpui import mainapp File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/chirpui/mainapp.py", line 24, in <module> import serial ImportError: No module named serial
as i have installed it by the way you suggest as recons it installed ok but do i need to do it another way and im using a IC92ad with the icom serial cable as have had no probs with the windows versions with them

i have been trying to get this to work but it cant seem to find the "serial" port is there a way to fix this as i am using ubuntu 8.10 and then i can let ya know how it goes
If you're using a built-in serial port, then it will be /dev/ttyS0 (or 1, 2, etc). If you're using a USB-to-serial adapter, then it will be /dev/ttyUSB0 (or 1, 2, etc).
When you go to download from the radio, it should populate that box with available serial ports. Does it not? What radio and cable are you using?
