No I meant Jlog http://jlog.org it's Java based, so runs on any platform. It's pretty good; about the best that I have found for Linux.

I haven't run across jlog.  Did you mean klog?

You shouldn't need any special drivers. I have used a USB/Serial adaptor with Mandrake without any problems. I can't remember the details but you simply use /dev/USBtty0 or whatever port you are on.

Do a google and you will find the details; it's quite straight forward.

I would use Linux more for ham radio if there were more ham programmes. I use if for everything else. But there is a lack of good logging software and something like DxAtlas. Jlog is quite good, but doesn't do much in the way of QSL management, label printing etc..

I tried running DxAtlas, HamCap etc under Win4Lin but they all fell over on graphics issues on my laptop.

Hi Ken.
My pooter doesn't have any serial ports so I use USB/serial adaptors. Have you found any Linux (Fedora Core 3 but it shouldn't matter which distro) drivers for there adaptors?

I have tried a number of the programs but I am currently running the Marote (latest version) on my Red Hat Linux system. It seems to be working just fine and I enjoy being able to do my ham stuff in linux (as opposed to having to join the "dark side" folks from Redmond). Also run GMFSK with my SignaLink SL-1. Good luck and enjoy your K2.
