[chirp_users] Radio did not ack programming mode error in Linux; worked a few weeks ago!

[Bob Nielsen]

Check to see if a different port designation is being used with your cable.  Type “dmesg” in a terminal right after connecting your cable and look at the last line in the output to see what it is (/dev/ttyUSBx).  Make sure the same value is selected in Chirp.
