[chirp_users] can't upload to 2820

[Brian Mury]

Hello,

I'm having problems uploading to my 2820 (downloading works). The upload
progresses until the CHIRP progress bar has hit 100%, and the 2820
progress bar has *almost* hit 100%, then the window with the CHIRP
progress bar closes, and the radio just sits there saying "CLONE IN",
and showing the progress bar a pixel or two away from completion. I'm
forced to power cycle the radio, at which point it resets to factory
settings.

I'm running Fedora 16, and was using chirp-0.1.12-5.fc16 from the
repository. I've tried upgrading to chirp-0.2.0-1.fc16, also from the
repository, and am seeing the same problem.

I'm using the data port, not the speaker port. I dug out an old Windows
laptop and tried the Icom CS-2820 software - it works, so the radio and
cable both work.

This used to work for me. I haven't used CHIRP in quite some time as I
haven't needed to make any changes to the radio's programming, so
unfortunately I can't say when it stopped working.

Here's the relevant portion of the output when run from a terminal:
