Due to a tragic and terribly embarrasing act last night I ended up totally 
messing up the /etc/udev/rules.d/20-names.rules file. In a fit of panic, rage, 
and/or desperation (I'll let you decide which) I went to square one and 
reloaded Fluxbuntu. Aside from an Ubuntu disc which won't work on this computer 
I don't have any other distro. 

So I have gone back and changed the permissions in 
/etc/udev/rules.d/40-permissions.rules so that the permissions problem will be 
solved. I will try again, with great caution and fear this time, to see if 
adding the /dev/ttyS0 to the /etc/udev/rules.d20-names file will get Xastir to 
talking to the Kenwood through the serial port.

I still need to dl GTKTerm and/or Minicom again.

As a reminder I have nothing serial except for the radio.

So am I forgetting something else that we have tried?

And does anyone know if I really need to name the serial port in the names 
file? The port is not named in the same file on my working Ubuntu computer. And 
if I do need to write the port into the 20-names.rules file what do I need to 
tell it to do and does this tie in somehow with the symlink rules?
