[chirp_users] Bug 1113 Icom 2100H error reported

[Peter]

Re Bug # 1113

I too have an Icom 2100H 2m transceiver and I also get the message 
"Unexpected response from radio" when I try to upload/download from the 
radio. This is under Linux Mint with the most recent version of Chirp.

I set the environment variable  DEBUG=30, try Chirp and get the error.

The laptop is dual boot, Linux Mint and Windows7.

Last lines of debug.log when Chirp (Linux Mint)was tried to 'detect' radio:

So then I retry, putting in the values  for the port ttyUSB0, choose the 
vendor as Icom and model  2100 and when I click clone from radio, I get 
this error report:

So, then I reboot into Windows7, no change in cable or usb port, and it 
all works!

I prefer to work in Linux so any suggestions would be welcome!
