<body class='hmmessage'><div dir='ltr'>Hi Jim at al,<br><br>Ok, found on the page relating to manual download that I need to type "chirpw" to run Chirp.<br><br>Would have been helpful to have that information on the download page, but never mind, got it running now and download from the radio works fine.<br><br>Btw, best thing about Linux is that I can use hardware that doesn't work in Windows. Like the adaptor for a led badge that uses a fake USB/serial chip.<br><br>Another best thing is that Windows 8.1 is abusing my HD and I can't use the computer due to it. MS have been unable to offer a fix so I am now a Ubuntu user. Kind of fun finding what I can run without windows. Not too bad really!<br><br>Thanks for your help and sorry to have bugged you<br><br>Wenlock<br>VK3YWB<br><br><br><br><div>> Date: Tue, 27 Oct 2015 06:16:17 -0400<br>> From: rock.unroe@gmail.com<br>> To: chirp_users@intrepid.danplanet.com<br>> Subject: Re: [chirp_users] FW: Chirp not talking to radio - Ubuntu 14.04<br>> <br>> On Tue, Oct 27, 2015 at 12:03 AM, Wenlock Burton<br>> <wenlock.burton@hotmail.com> wrote:<br>> ><br>> ><br>> > ________________________________<br>> ><br>> > Hi,<br>> ><br>> > Just installed Chirp on Ubuntu 14.04 and can't get it to read anything from<br>> > the radio.<br>> ><br>> <br>> Wenlock,<br>> <br>> My CHIRP daily-20151023 works fine in the Ubuntu 14.4LTS virtual<br>> machine that I created.<br>> <br>> Did you install CHIRP daily-20151023 from the PPA as instructed on the<br>> CHIRP download page (see "Ubuntu Linux Users")?
