This was working great. (Fedora 14 current update - Xastir from CVS
today)
PL-1203 USB to RS-232 to a KPC3+ (serial, no KISS), but I was using a
'keyspan' adapter. Switched to a 'no-name' PL-1203 adapter and now I
can no longer 'open' the TNC under interfaces. However, I can access
the TNC with this no name adapter using minicom just fine.
Is it as obvious as the adapter being a POS or am I missing something
else.
Have changed permissions on /dev/ttyUSB0, set the sticky bit on
xastir, deleted the interface and created new, even started Xastir as
root - no joy. Any ideas on what else I can try other than getting my
keyspan back?
thanks!
I ran into that problem when upgrading ubuntu 10.04 to 10.10 about 3
weeks ago. My "workaround" was to go back to 10.04. I understand that
the Prolific PL2303 driver is "part of the kernel". Too bad...
