Maybe try it with sudo to see if it’s a permissions problem. Also type dmesg to see if there are any kernel errors after it exits. Another possibility would be compile for debug and run it under gdb to see if it hits an exception. Or step through to see where it fails. — John. On Mon, Nov 27,

hey, josh, let me know if you want startup capital, I'm happy to help there. I know of at least 2 other people on list who would probably add to the startup fund. ray From: M100 on behalf of Josh Malone

When you plug in your usb serial device you can type dmesg And it will print out recent kernel messages. You can usually tell what /dev/ttyUSBx device just got added from the scrawl. — John. On Mon, Nov 27, 2017 at 3:34 PM Peter Vollan wrote: > I am not certain which

I am not certain which USB port I am on. But on the other hand, desklink gives the say result whatever port I enter, or if I enter none at all. On 27 November 2017 at 15:17, John R. Hogerhuis wrote: > Shouldn’t do that. It should run and stay running unless you hit ctrl-c > >

Shouldn’t do that. It should run and stay running unless you hit ctrl-c Guessing there’s a hardware problem with the port, or a software / permissions issue. You could also try LaddieAlpha. — John. On Mon, Nov 27, 2017 at 3:14 PM Peter Vollan wrote: > When I run "./dl"

When I run "./dl" followed by the usb port of my usb adaptor, I just get the command line again. Shouldn't dlplus do something else, like it does in DOS? Dlplus seemed to compile fine in the first place. I realise that another possible wrinkle is that my cable(s) is not working. I am using a

I'd start with cold start, hit enter, type beep, enter, and see if the CPU and os is running. Assuming that they aren't, check the reset line with a scope to make sure the CPU is being reset properly on power up and that it's not held low (I think it's active low) since the nimh is in play on this
