<div dir="ltr">For me running Ubuntu (16.04) on a Chromebook under Crouton (which is not a garden variety setup for sure), and using a cable with a counterfeit chip, it still "just works." However, even though I am a member of the Dialout group, I still need to do the "sudo chmod 777 /dev/ttyUSB0" each time. It is not a huge problem to do this, since I only program my Baofengs (UV-5R and UV-82HP) when I go from Washington to Arizona and vice-versa. It is most likely not CHIRP, not the cable, and not the Baofeng that is your problem.<div><br></div><div>Pat Anderson</div><div>KD7OAC</div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Wed, Dec 25, 2019 at 5:04 PM Jim Allyn <<a href="mailto:jim@allynelectronics.com">jim@allynelectronics.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">For me, and for everybody I know, in Linux it "just simply works." When for everybody else, it works, perhaps rather than blaming the program or the OS, maybe you should start thinking, "What am **_I_** doing wrong?"<br>
