Could I respectfully suggest that this be discussed off list?

 

Cheers

Hi Ken,

 

Haven't used that specific flight recorder, but have had some similar
problems with other USB sticks and the like in linux (Ubuntu).

 

If you type "fdisk" into the terminal, is it shown there?


Hi Adam,

On this computer (not the laptop) I am running Ubuntu. Below is the output
of fdisk -l when I insert a normal USB stick.

If I do this with the flyWithCE instead of the USB stick it only finds the
two hard drives.
I have tried this both with the recorder powered on and off.

The Logbook software for Windows installs a special driver as well as the
logbook application.

To: Aus-soaring@lists.internode.on.net

I have a flyWithCE Flight Recorder and Logbook software which can
extract the igc, kml and nmea files from the recorder and copy them to
my computer running Windows XP.

It would be very convenient if I could copy the files from the flight
recorder directly to my laptop running a version of Linux. The flight
recorder does not appear as a USB flash drive nor as a USB HDD. Does
anyone on this list know of a way to get the Flight Recorder to talk to
a Linux computer?
