Hi Michael - plug the cable into the radio and computer, turn on the
radio then in a terminal window on Linux type
dmesg
On Linux you may need to have root privileges.
At the bottom of the output you should see either a USB device - or
possibly a serial device - and the port you need to use assuming you
have the right cable.

I understand about "live mode" programming". I also have a Kenwood
D710G that programs that way. Whatever the case, one has to start by
downloading the radio's current programming prior to editing it.
Downloading isn't working, either with the Linux or the Windows version.
I see in the FAQ that ICOM 7100 is a supported radio (since 2017).
So, why am I getting the error?
Does CHIRP not work via the USB Port?
I've seen a number of YouTube videos where folks use RT Systems
software to program the ICOM 7100 via the USB port.
I'd like to use CHIRP...

My initial thoughts on this, although I am by no means an expert,
is that FLRIG is a rig control application, whereas CHIRP is a
programming tool, unless used in 'live mode'.

FLRIG can control the radio through that interface.
Running CHIRP 0.3.0dev, when I try to download from the radio
via /dev/ttyUSB0, I get a pop-up error message: unicode
strings are not supported, please encode to bytes: <<gibberish
characters>>>".
Are there specific settings I need to have set on the ICOM?
Is CHIRP able to interact with the ICOM-7100 via the mini-USB
port? Do I have to use the RT-Systems FTDI cable into the
audio port?
P.S. I also tried running Windows CHIRP daily-20220408.
Download from radio gets "error" in every entry.
