[chirp_users] Chirp not showing USB ports in Linux
I need some help here please. I have LinuxMint 14 installed on my laptop. Mint sees my USB cable as ttyUSB0. However, all Chirp sees is tty0 and above, no USB anything, thus I can't begin to connect to anything until I can get Chirp to recognize my USB ports.

su root and do /lsusb and see if the port exists there. If not do a /dmesg | more and scroll through the list of kernel messages to see if you can spot anything odd.

Would that be because CHIRP uses serial ports and not USB ports? The programming cable's job is to create a psudo serial port for CHIRP to use. Have you added your user to the 'dialout' group?

Oops. I retract what I stated. /dev/ttyUSB0 is exactly what my LinuxMint uses...
Jim KC9HI
The device should appear as /ttyUSB0 in just about any flavor of linux, even the mint flavor :)

What does your debug.log tell you;

in ~/.chirp/debug.log ?
What happens when you define the display (editable) to
/dev/ttyUSB0
and hit the ok button ?

What distro?
Maybe it doesn't have permissions. In deb/ubuntu usually you'll need to be in the dialup user group to have access to serial devices, including USB-based ones. You can either change the udev rule to allow all permissions, or the group which the device node is created, or add yourself to the dialup group and start chirp from a new login session.

Just guessing here, but does CHIRP have access to ttyUSB0? What are the permissions on that port? Dee AB1ST
