Pathing. Linux does NOT do like Windows and search the current directory for commands. You can run "echo $PATH" to see what your environment's path is set to. If you run 'pwd' you see where you are, currently. Possibly /home/ I assume your scripts are located in

Yup, PL2303 is correct. However, it seems it might not be a 'bug' per se. Seems it's becoming a larger problem. See below. FWIW, the 'workaround' didn't work for me here. I'll test here by going back a few revs in kernel - see what happens. 73 2011-04-25: #12 I was hit with this

Yup, it's a kernel module. But it appears the problem isn't really in the driver itself, but rather in a change in how the Kernel's serial API is used. But, It's beyond my abilities to verify one way or the other. All I know is minicom and gpsd both work great - xastir don't. 73 On
