[chirp_users] Chirp Mint 13 w/cinnamon Yaesu FT-8800
Gang,
Installed Chirp. I am using a cable that I got from some Windows software that I used to program the FT-8800. It works fine with that software. I just don't use W for much and would like to do away with it all together.
When I put the 8800 in clone mode and clicked OK on chirp, I got an error from Chirp saying that it did not have permission to use /dev/ttyS0.
sudo chmod 777 /dev/ttyS0 fixed that at least for now.
Trying again produced : "An error has occurred failed to read header 0"
Any thoughts?

You know that it needs more than just to be in clone mode right? You need to press the magic button on the radio that starts it dumping its image to the computer *after* you click OK on CHIRP.
Dan,
I started off using the same combination of buttons that I used for the G4HFQ software.
So far it appears that I have not hit the right combination.

Yes, it's the same combination/procedure.
Are you really using the integrated serial port on your machine, or a USB adapter? Please attach your debug log so I can take a look.
