[chirp_users] OS-X 10.8.5 and RTS cable for VX7
Anyone else out there using this combination successfully? Even any RTS cable? I've been helping out a gal off list with her Mac and RTS cable. She had posted one message to the list yesterday if you want to read her synopsis. In addition she has emailed me back several times as I had her run some diagnostics and wanted to view her kernel messages. Kernel message says the FTDI chip load ok. But when she's getting hard locks on read requiring a long press on the power button to get a reboot. Some other things are a bit vague but I will attempt to re-read.
What I'm looking for is a person or persons who use the latest OSX and an RTS cable so I can see a driver version. Another funny thing, she said the system info finds the driver just fine. And it loads in the kenel message. But that driver can't be found in the Chirp list of cables. I though that was a bit odd and thanks for any help.

Yesterday you wanted to take the thread off list and today you want to bring it back on list. Interesting.

I've used an RT Systems cable successfully with OS X, but I didn't try the RT Systems driver. I modified the VID/PID of my cable and used the standard FTDI driver. It works perfectly.
