Not a problem. Yes, the operating system learning curve can be painful if you are using unusual hardware.
In your case, your FTDI adaptor seems to be the problem, as it requires an extra kernel module to be enabled. If you instead used a PL2303 compatible serial adaptor it would have worked fine the first time with no customization required. So your choices are: - buy a PL2303 serial adaptor and use that as your hardware - or update your os to current and hope the module will modprobe successfully - or try to follow the link I provided with what seems to be one way to get the modprobe to work - or reflash your os to current, after saving your setup someplace and restoring it so you don't lose your skin customizations Warren provided a link to how to backup and restore your configuration in his reply. Eventually you will need to know how to do that no matter how you solve today's problem.

With my financial means, I learned to program on a Ti-57 (49 programming step!) Then a pokcet-PC limited to 2 kB and 26 variables. We learn to be concise. But you know like me that IT is vast. And that you cannot be competent in everything. Thank you for your help and to animate this group.
