In addition to what Paul said in his reply, add your "user" to the "dialout" group.

Easiest way with what you have is to just go into the directory from a text box, and type ./chirpw

No install required. The './' is required because the exec file is not in the run path.

I have down loaded the daily build and unpacked it into a folder named "chirp". What else do I need to do to install this in my PCLINUX OS?

I have what appears to be a bug with latest daily build for FT857 with MARS Mod. It will not download from radio. Same Win10 computer and cable works fine with other programming software. How do I report this properly?

CHIRP support for the FT857 has has been untouched for at least 6 months.

I would suggest trying a daily build from last year or even the CHIRP v0.4.1 stable build to see if that makes a difference. If it doesn't, then I would be pretty sure this is not a CHIRP issue. If it does, I would suggest that since you have a FT857 and there is a chance that no of the developers do, you might go through the daily builds to find at which build the support actually breaks. This would be very helpful for anyone trying to figure out what may have changed.

But to answer your question, on the CHIRP wiki/home page, in the "To get started" section, click the link in step 2 for the CHIRP documentation page. On this page click the link for the "How to report issues" page.

I'm glad to see you got it sorted out. Have a great weekend.
