I have the latest daily build
working fine with my D72 and TH-F6A. My
D7A(g) just sits there when trying to read from the
radio. The real
kicker is when I use the 0.1.11b5 version, the A(g) is
read fine. Any issue.
Hmm, okay. If you could run it in the terminal and capture the output, that would be helpful:
./chirpw >mylog.txt 2>&1
Then reproduce the hang, wait a bit, and then close chirp. Send me the log file and I'll take a look. I don't have a D7, so I have to borrow one to do any hands-on investigation :)

Thanks Dan,
Will let you know after it's posted. Used an older version of Chirp to program and read my D7A(g). The old KW software is long in tooth and won't run under WINE in Linux. Runs but won't communicate over the serial link. Something is blasted in the old Windows program.
As an aside, I was able to get WINE to run MCP4A for the D72 albeit takes a heck of a lot of work to install the NetFramework and lift the MCP4a directory and executables off of a Windows machine. Rig has to be on ttyUSB0 and it's slow but works. I like Chirp a heck of a lot better for simple programming for the D72.
If anyone is interested, here is the instruction file.

Yeah, it's for a rocket motor simulation program (I do that too) but getting WINE to run in that fashion allowed other programs to work too. The old KW programmers for the D7 and the F6A won't work under emulation.:-(
Be aware that any version above WINE 1.3.14 won't install the net framework. It fails at NetFramework v2.0. I use 1.3.13 on a Slack 13.1 machine. In Slack 13.37 there are no Samyak-Malayam fonts so one doesn't have to worry about that issue in the instructions I wrote.
Get it installed like I show and the last version of FT-817 Commander will run on a Linux box. HRD won't run.
Oh, I'm not a programmer but wished I was or had the time to learn some rudimentary stuff. Solved this problem by brute force.:-)

Oops, yeah, that was a silly typo. It's fixed for the next daily.
Thanks!

Kurt,
Have you looked at openrocket (opens rocksim files) if you're just looking for flight simulation (6 dof) if you're looking for actual motor sims... you might be best with wine.
