Do you have objects turned on in the Station->Filter Data menu? See any objects listed in the View->Own Objects & Items dialog? > By the way.... what does chmod 777 portname actually do? That's Octal, so you're setting every bit for 9 bits. It sets rwxrwxrwx on the device, which means anybody can read it or write it. 666 would have worked as well, which would have been rw-rw-rw- Do an "ls -l <portname>" and you'll see the bits that you set. -- Curt, WE7U: <www.eskimo.com/~archer/> XASTIR: <www.xastir.org> "Lotto: A tax on people who are bad at math." -- unknown "Windows: Microsoft's tax on computer illiterates." -- WE7U The world DOES revolve around me: I picked the coordinate system! _______________________________________________ Xastir mailing list [email protected] http://lists.xastir.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/xastir
