Howdy. I'm trying to use hamlib to control an Icom IC-746 with a homebrew TTL to RS232 level converter. The level converter works great on my dekstop's DB9 RS-232 serial port, but not on my laptop's DB25 RS-232 parallel port. Both run the same Debian Sarge release with very similar sets of software packages. The problem I'm having is that when any application tries to use the parallel port, ppdev gets angry. The specific error in the message log is: "ppdev0: claim the port first" Does anyone have an idea as to what this is alluding to? Google wasn't much help for me.
