Hey Curt. I've seen your comments in the source code, thanks for your work. I've used both serial TNC interface and serial KISS TNC interface. Based on the /dev/cu comment, I guess it hangs because of blocking(?). I don't believe there is a permission on that port. I can apply a generic username (guest) in putty with the autologin username without problem.
Is there a debugging #define in the source I can build against to get more information while the interface is opening? From: "Curt Mills" <curt.w...@gmail.com> Which type of interface are you using in Xastir? Did you add your username to the dialout group? What are the permissions on the port you're trying to use?
