[chirp_users] Linux usb port in Ubuntu and Mint
I spent a lot of time trying to get my Linux computers to read from my Wouxun radio using both the Wouxun programming cable and an Ftdi1232 board and got a serial port error message. My mistake was selecting dev/ttyS0. You need to select dev/ttyUSB0 way down at the end of the tty list.
You need to watch it to... Sometimes it will bounce to /dev/ttyUSB1 depending on what is plugged in when you plug that cable in.

A little cheat sheet for linux serial devices:
*/dev/ttyS0, /dev/ttyS1, etc* Real native Motherboards ports, sort order is from the IRQ number
*/dev/ttyUSB0, /dev/ttyUSB1, etc* The majority of the USB serial adapters, sort order is the plug in order.
*/dev/ttyACM0, /dev/ttyACM1, etc* Some USB serial adapters (mostly based on PIC or AVR MCU) sort order is the plug in order

Having been messing with ttyUSBx devices recently, for repeatable paths based on USB bus attachments, check out /dev/serial/by-path which is especially helpful in the case where you have multiple USB2Serial adaptors.
