Rick,
I am sorry you are having all these problems while it worked for me on
7.10 first time. Have you looked through the messages in Dave's group.
There may be an answer there or somebody may be able to help you.

Using Windows does not mean the application is closed source. There is a
great deal of open source Windows software.
You keep making so strange generalizations like "closed source" and
"appliance operators". They hinder your getting your ideas across.

VHF/UHF is envisioned just the way it is now. That is the vision of the

voice and digital. But actually less weak signal now than in the past!
Odd when you consider the enormous numbers of new hams who can run 1500

What language are you
Rick,
As I said, I am no Linux or Ubuntu expert. Here is what I did, though.
For the older version 1.37 (or what ever) of the fldigi program, I
simply installed it using the Synaptic Agent. I then had to navigate to
usr/bin directory, find the fldigi file and click on it to run it. You
should a

I did not bash operators using Microsoft Windows. Use that if you
want. My point is that the packet radio cannot prosper i
Thanks Howard,
I did try 1.37 but no difference. It unrolls OK and all that, but then
the executable file is not operative. Very frustrating. This seems to be
the problem with Linux. There is some "little" thing that just does not
work. In the past I was able to download binaries and get them t

Like many new things, packet rose for a period of time and then

discontinued operations due to lack of interest or even death. There
just was not enough interest in packet to sustain it, much less grow it,

I have signed no NDAs for Windows development either professionally or

I keep trying Linux but every time I do I run into some hassle that is
off-putting. After the holidays (and my wedding on the 29th ) I probably
will get back to looking at Linux. The development I do for ham radio

Packet is kind of pointless these days. You can sit in the shack and
work other modes while sending email much faster over the Internet. On
HF I think modes like PSK 31 are much more interesting in that you can
take advantage of direct communications in a narrow bandwidth. VHF and
UHF are somew
I have personally found that GNU/Linux is a wonderful development environment
but that is just my opinion and I wouldn't choose to bash those using Windows
even if I found all of the NDAs you are required to sign (for Win Dev) to be
overly cumbersome.

Rick, this may have changed but my version of FLDIGI

It seems impossible that this stuff doesn't work, but it must be some

Good morning, Rick. I am not an Ubuntu expert by any stretch of the
imagination. I have been playing around with it a bit, though. I also

an icon on your desktop, or an item in your menu. Here's what I had to do:
