Hi William, then this whole thing sounds to me like a kernel issue - 2.8p2 tries three times before it gives up, 2times without rts and then one time with rts turned on ... however this didnt work for me either.
if you are running from source you could give my patch a try - also it would be helpful to first compile owfs with debug enabled and send the output (with --debug) of e.g. owserver to the list ... there was also a second problem - besides the rts problem that the serial buffer wasnt flushed often enough and thus the LinkUSB detection failed - both is fixed in my patch ... and documented in my email ... ;) paul (and all other devs): would it help to submit patches/bug reports directly into the sourceforge trackers instead of posting to the list ?!?! greets, m.
