You missed the boat on this one, It was described as rs-232 not usb, usb, as in a usb-ser adaptor device, which would have been ttyUSB* , was never mentioned, only rs-232 making it ttyS* range. This was also confirmed in a dmesg test The issue was resolved with the user obtaining the correct

I really wish people would start allowing the serial-aliasing that exists in modern Linux... It's really much easier to find where your stuff is plugged in at... chris@maximilian:/dev/serial/by-id$ ls -la total 0 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 240 Sep 26 13:25 . drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 80 Sep 26 13:25 ..

Not sure if it's been mentioned, but if it's a USB serial, it's never /dev/ttyS*... You should be using /dev/ttyUSB* You'll also want to make sure you add the user you're logging in as to the "dialout" group. 73 de AI8W, Chris -BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK- Version: 3.1 GCS/CM/CC/E/IT/TW d-@ s+:

Adrian, Yes, I can now start wsjtx normal as user "uwe". So, at the moment there is no need for me to switch to pulse audio. Must have been something wrong with the "dialout" permission . I will now again fucusing myself on another very annoying Linux bug: the "no signal" error. All the newer Lin

Mike, sorry, that is incorrect on a couple of counts. Unix devices are normally owned by root, the group they belong to is usually used to control access to non-root users. Changing the group of a device is pointless as it will revert on the next reboot when the /dev filesystem is rebuilt. T

That implies your /dev device isn't part of the dialout group. Look at it and it probably isn't owned by the dialout groupls -l /dev/ttyUSB*crw-rw 1 root dialout 188, 0 Sep 22 15:54 /dev/ttyUSB0 If not,chgrp dialout /dev/ttyUSB* Mike W9MDB On Wednesday, September 23, 2020, 08:12:39

Hi Uwe, did you log out of your Desktop session before trying to access the port? A reboot is a sure way of picking up the new group. If that doesn't work then something is unusual about your devices, what do the following commands print? ls -l /dev/tty* id 73 Bill G4WJS. On 23/09/2020 14

Hi Bill and Adrian,Thanks for your replies. Yes, it seems indeed to be a permission issue. When I start wsjtx with sudo, CAT works. However, it is not yet cear to me what is denying the permission, because user "uwe" is already a member of group "dialout". Hm... Am Mittwoch, den 23.09.2020, 13:49 +
