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?
