Hi guys,

I have a pair of BF888, I wanted to do some changes in their config after a long time. I run into the problem that my old cable with PL2023TA is not compatible with w11, the chirp next does not open any window on ubuntu 22.04 if I click download from radio, and if I install here the old chirp version, that downloads crap (loads my saved files also with bad data). Chirp next loads the saved config files correctly.

I would like to focus on chirp next on u22.04 and make that work. If I run it from console, this is what I see, when I try to download from radio:

myuseronmylaptop:~$ chirp-snap.chirp 21:19:40: Debug: Failed to connect to session manager: Could not open network socket 21:19:40: Debug: Adding duplicate image handler for 'Windows bitmap file' 21:19:40: Debug: Adding duplicate image handler for 'Windows bitmap file' 21:19:40: Debug: Adding duplicate image handler for 'Windows bitmap file' WARNING: Did not find localedir: /snap/chirp-snap/561/lib/python3.10/site-packages/chirp/locale Traceback (most recent call last):   File "/snap/chirp-snap/561/lib/python3.10/site-packages/chirp/wxui/main.py", line 1166, in _menu_download     with clone.ChirpDownloadDialog(self) as d:   File "/snap/chirp-snap/561/lib/python3.10/site-packages/chirp/wxui/clone.py", line 225, in __init__     self.set_ports()   File "/snap/chirp-snap/561/lib/python3.10/site-packages/chirp/wxui/clone.py", line 283, in set_ports     system_ports = list_ports.comports()   File "/snap/chirp-snap/561/lib/python3.10/site-packages/serial/tools/list_ports_linux.py", line 102, in comports     for info in [SysFS(d) for d in devices]   File "/snap/chirp-snap/561/lib/python3.10/site-packages/serial/tools/list_ports_linux.py", line 102, in <listcomp>     for info in [SysFS(d) for d in devices]   File "/snap/chirp-snap/561/lib/python3.10/site-packages/serial/tools/list_ports_linux.py", line 48, in __init__     num_if = int(self.read_line(self.usb_device_path, 'bNumInterfaces')) TypeError: int() argument must be a string, a bytes-like object or a real number, not 'NoneType'

Do you have any hint what I should try?
